1 Corinthians 11:5-7
New International Version - UK

5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonours her head – it is the same as having her head shaved. 6 For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

7 A man ought not to cover his head,[a] since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

Footnotes

  1. 1 Corinthians 11:7 Or 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with long hair dishonours his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with no covering of hair dishonours her head – she is just like one of the ‘shorn women’. 6 If a woman has no covering, let her be for now with short hair; but since it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair shorn or shaved, she should grow it again. 7 A man ought not to have long hair
