New Testament

1 Corinthians 11:1-6 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Follow my example, just as I follow the example of Christ.

2. I praise you for being faithful in remembering me. I also praise you for staying true to all my teachings, just as I gave them to you.

3. Now I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ. The head of the woman is the man. And the head of Christ is God.

4. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered brings shame on his head.

5. And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered brings shame on her head. It is just as if her head were shaved.

6. What if a woman does not cover her head? She should have her hair cut off. But it is shameful for her to cut her hair or shave it off. So she should cover her head.
