1 Corinthians 11:7

---

← 1 Corinthians 11:6	1 Corinthians 11:7 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 11:8 →
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.	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.	For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
