1 Corinthians 11:5 Context
3But I would haue you knowe, that the head of euery man is Christ: and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. 4Euery man praying or prophecying, hauing his head couered, dishonoureth his head. 5But euery woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head vncouered, dishonoureth her head: for that is euen all one as if she were shauen. 6For if the woman be not couered, let her also bee shorne: but if it bee a shame for a woman to be shorne or shauen, let her be couered. 7For a man in deede ought not to couer his head, forasmuch as hee is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
