11. However, neither is woman without man, nor man without woman, in the Lord.
12. For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman, but all things of God.
13. Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman should pray to God uncovered?
14. Does not even nature itself teach you, that man, if he have long hair, it is a dishonour to him?
15. But woman, if she have long hair, it is glory to her; for the long hair is given to her in lieu of a veil.
16. But if any one think to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the assemblies of God.
17. But in prescribing to you on this which I now enter on, I do not praise, namely, that ye come together, not for the better, but for the worse.
18. For first, when ye come together in assembly, I hear there exist divisions among you, and I partly give credit to it.
19. For there must also be sects among you, that the approved may become manifest among you.
20. When ye come therefore together into one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.
21. For each one in eating takes his own supper before others, and one is hungry and another drinks to excess.
