(1co 11:1) Be ye followers of me, even as I also {am} of Christ.
(1co 11:2) Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered {them} to you.
(1co 11:3) But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman {is} the man; and the head of Christ {is} God.
(1co 11:4) Every man praying or prophesying, having {his} head covered, dishonoureth his head.
(1co 11:5) But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with {her} head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
(1co 11:6) For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
(1co 11:7) For a man indeed ought not to cover {his} head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
(1co 11:8) For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
(1co 11:9) Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
(1co 11:10) For this cause ought the woman to have power on {her} head because of the angels.
(1co 11:11) Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
(1co 11:12) For as the woman {is} of the man, even so {is} the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
(1co 11:13) Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
(1co 11:14) Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
(1co 11:15) But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for {her} hair is given her for a covering.
(1co 11:16) But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
(1co 11:17) Now in this that I declare {unto you} I praise {you} not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
(1co 11:18) For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
(1co 11:19) For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
(1co 11:20) When ye come together therefore into one place, {this} is not to eat the Lord's supper.
(1co 11:21) For in eating every one taketh before {other} his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
(1co 11:22) What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise {you} not.
(1co 11:23) For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the {same} night in which he was betrayed took bread:
(1co 11:24) And when he had given thanks, he brake {it}, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
(1co 11:25) After the same manner also {he took} the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink {it}, in remembrance of me.
(1co 11:26) For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
(1co 11:27) Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink {this} cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
(1co 11:28) But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of {that} bread, and drink of {that} cup.
(1co 11:29) For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
(1co 11:30) For this cause many {are} weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
(1co 11:31) For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
(1co 11:32) But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
(1co 11:33) Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
(1co 11:34) And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
