1. Become imitators of me, as I also am of Messiah.
2. And I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in every way and keep the traditions as I delivered them to you.
3. And I wish you to know that the head of every man is the Messiah, and the head of woman is the man, and the head of Messiah is Elohim.
4. Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, brings shame to his Head.
5. And every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered brings shame to her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.
6. For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
7. For a man indeed should not cover his head, since he is the likeness and esteem of Elohim, but woman is the esteem of man.
8. For man is not from woman, but woman from man.
9. For man also was not created for the woman, but woman for the man.
