1 Corinthians 11

1 BE ye imitators of me, as I am of Christ.

I commende you

2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the injunctions as I delivered them unto you.

brethren that ye remeber me in all thinges and kepe the ordinaunces even as I delyvered them to you.

3 But I desire you to take notice that the head of every man is Christ; but the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

I wolde ye knew that Christ is the heed of every man. And the man is the womans heed. And God is Christes heed.

4 Every man praying or prophesying, holding a veil over his head, dishonoureth his head;

Eevery ma prayinge or prophesyinge havynge eny thynge on his heed shameth his heed.

5 but every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled, dishonoureth her head; for it is one and the same thing, as if she were shaven.

Every woman that prayeth or prophisieth bare hedded dishonesteth hyr heed. For it is even all one and the very same thinge even as though she were shaven.

6 For if the woman be not veiled, let her hair be clipped: but if it would be scandalous for a woman to appear clipped or shaved, let her be veiled.

If the woman be not covered lett her also be shoren. If it be shame for a woma to be shorne or shave let her cover her heed.

7 For a man indeed ought not to veil his head, being the image and the glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

A man ought not to cover his heed for as moche as he is the image and glory of God. The woman is the glory of the man.

8 For the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man.

For the man is not of the woman but the woman of the ma.

9 Also the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

Nether was the man created for ye womas sake: but the woma for the mannes sake

10 Therefore ought the woman to retain upon her head this badge of authority, because of the angels of the churches.

For this cause ought the woma to have power on her heed for the angels sakes.

11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man in the Lord.

Neverthelesse nether is the ma with oute the woma nether the woma with out the man in the lorde.

12 For as the woman was taken out of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things are of God.

For as the woman is of the man eve so is the man by the woman: but all is of God.

13 Judge among yourselves, is it decent for a woman to be praying to God without a covering?

Iudge in youre selves whether it be coly yt a woman praye vnto god bare heeded.

14 Does not even nature itself teach you, that if a man wear long flowing hair it is a dishonour to him?

Or els doth not nature teach you that it is a shame for a man

15 But if a woman let her hair flow, it is an ornament to her; for the hair was given her for a covering,

if he have longe heere: and a prayse to a woman yf she have longe heere? For her heere is geven her to cover her with all.

16 But if any man mean to be contentious about it, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God.

If there be eny man amonge you yt lusteth to stryve let him knowe that we have no soche custome nether the congregacions of God.

17 But in the matter I am going to denounce, I do not commend you, that ye meet together not for the better, but for the worse.

This I warne you of and commende not that ye come to gedder: not after a better maner but after a worsse.

18 For in the first place, when ye assemble in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

Fyrst of all when ye come togedder in the cogregacion I heare that ther is dissencion amonge you: and I partly beleve it.

19 For there must be heresies among you, that they who are the tried ones, may be made manifest among you.

For ther must be sectes amonge you that they which are perfecte amonge you myght be knowen.

20 When therefore ye assemble in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord’s supper.

When ye come to gedder a man cannot eate the lordes supper. For every man begynneth a fore to eate his awne supper.

21 For one in the eating it taketh before another his own supper: and one is hungry, and another drinks to excess.

And one is hongrye and another is dronken. Have ye not houses to eate and to drinke in?

22 What! have ye not houses to eat in and to drink? or despise ye the church of God, and make those ashamed who have none? What shall I say unto you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

Or els despyse ye the congregacion of god and shame them that have not? What shall I saye vnto you? shall I prayse you: In this prayse I you not.

23 For I received of the Lord what also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was betrayed, took a loaf:

That which I delyvered vnto you I receaved of ye lorde. For ye lorde Iesus the same nyght in which he was betrayed toke breed:

24 and when he had blessed it, he brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me.

and thanked and brake and sayde. Take ye and eate ye: this is my body which is broken for you. This do ye in the remembraunce of me.

25 In like manner also he took the cup, after they had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

After the same maner he toke the cup when sopper was done sayinge. This cup is the newe testament in my bloude. This do as oft as ye drynke it in the remebraunce of me.

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew forth the death of the Lord till he come.

For as often as ye shall eate this breed and drynke this cup ye shall shewe the lordes deeth tyll he come.

27 Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

Wherfore whosoevere shall eate of this bred or drynke of the cup vnworthely shalbe giltie of the body and bloud of the Lorde

28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

Let a ma therfore examen him silfe and so let hi eate of the breed and drynke of the cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh condemnation to himself, not distinguishing the Lord’s body.

For he yt eateth or drinketh vnworthely eateth and drynketh his awne damnacion because he maketh no difference of the lordis body.

30 For this cause many are diseased and infirm among you, and some asleep in death.

For this cause many are weake and sicke amoge you and many slepe.

31 For if we thoroughly judged ourselves, we should not be judged of the Lord.

Yf we had truly iudged oure selves we shuld not have bene iudged.

32 But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we might not be condemned with the world.

But when we are iudged of the lorde we are chastened because we shuld not be daned with the worlde.

33 Wherefore, when ye meet together to eat the Lord’s supper, wait for one another.

Wherfore my brethren when ye come to gedder to eate tary one for another.

34 And if any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that ye meet not together for condemnation. And the other matters I will regulate when I come.

Yf eny ma hoger let hi eate at home yt ye come not togedder vnto condenacio. Other thinges will I set in order whe I come.
