< 1 Corinthians 11 >

1 Imitators of me do be even as I myself also [am] I myself also [am] of Christ.
Be my imitators, even as I also [am] of Christ.
2 I commend now you (brothers *k*) that in all things me you have remembered, and even as I delivered to you the teachings you are keeping.
Now I praise you, that in all things ye are mindful of me; and that as I have directed you, ye keep the directions.
3 I want however you to know that of every man the head Christ is, [the] head now of [the] woman [is] the man; [the] head now (*no*) of Christ God.
But I wish you to know that the Christ is the head of every man, but woman's head [is] the man, and the Christ's head God.
4 Every man praying or prophesying [anything] on [his] head having he dishonors the head of him.
Every man praying or prophesying, having [anything] on his head, puts his head to shame.
5 Every now woman praying or prophesying uncovered with the head dishonors the head (of her; *N(k)O*) one for it is and the same with which shaven.
But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered puts her own head to shame; for it is one and the same as a shaved [woman].
6 If for not covers her head a woman, also she should be shorn; If [it is] now disgraceful to a woman to be shorn or to be shaven, she should cover her head.
For if a woman be not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if [it be] shameful to a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, let her be covered.
7 A man indeed for not ought to cover the head image and glory of God being; (the *no*) woman however [the] glory of man is;
For man indeed ought not to have his head covered, being God's image and glory; but woman is man's glory.
8 Not for is man of woman but woman of man;
For man is not of woman, but woman of man.
9 Truly for not was created man on account of the woman but woman on account of the man;
For also man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake of the man.
10 Because of this ought the woman authority to have on the head on account of the angels.
Therefore ought the woman to have authority on her head, on account of the angels.
11 However neither [is] woman without man nor man without woman in [the] Lord;
However, neither [is] woman without man, nor man without woman, in [the] Lord.
12 Just as for the woman of the man [is] so also the man through the woman [is], the however all things of God.
For as the woman [is] of the man, so also [is] the man by the woman, but all things of God.
13 In you yourselves do judge: Becoming is it for a woman revealed to God to pray?
Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman should pray to God uncovered?
14 (or *K*) Not even nature itself does teach you that a man indeed if he shall have long hair, a dishonor to him it is,
Does not even nature itself teach you, that man, if he have long hair, it is a dishonour to him?
15 a woman however if she shall have long hair, glory to her it is? For the long hair instead of a covering has been given to her;
But woman, if she have long hair, [it is] glory to her; for the long hair is given [to her] in lieu of a veil.
16 If now anyone is inclined contentious to be, we ourselves such custom no [other] have nor the churches of God.
But if any one think to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the assemblies of God.
17 In this now (instructing *NK(o)*) not I do praise because not for the better but for the (worse *N(k)O*) you come together.
But [in] prescribing [to you on] this [which I now enter on], I do not praise, [namely, ] that ye come together, not for the better, but for the worse.
18 First indeed for coming together you in (*k*) an assembly I hear divisions among you there to be, and in part it I believe;
For first, when ye come together in assembly, I hear there exist divisions among you, and I partly give credit [to it].
19 It behooves for also factions among you there to be, so that (also *no*) the approved evident may become among you.
For there must also be sects among you, that the approved may become manifest among you.
20 Coming therefore of you together in one place not it is [the] Lord’s supper to eat;
When ye come therefore together into one place, it is not to eat [the] Lord's supper.
21 One for [their] own supper takes first in eating, and this [one] indeed is hungry, that [one] however is drunken.
For each one in eating takes his own supper before [others], and one is hungry and another drinks to excess.
22 Surely not indeed houses surely you have in which to eat and to drink? Or the church of God do you despise and put to shame those nothing having? What shall I say to you shall I praise you in this? Not I praise [you]!
Have ye not then houses for eating and drinking? or do ye despise the assembly of God, and put to shame them who have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this [point] I do not praise.
23 I myself for received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread,
For I received from the Lord, that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was delivered up, took bread,
24 and having given thanks He broke [it] and said (do take *KO*) (do eat: *K*) This of Me is the body which [is] for you (being broken; *K*) this do perform in of Me remembrance.
and having given thanks broke [it], and said, This is my body, which [is] for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25 Likewise also the cup after having supped saying; This cup the new covenant is in My blood; this do perform, as often as (when *N(k)O*) you shall drink [it], in of Me remembrance.
In like manner also the cup, after having supped, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do, as often as ye shall drink [it], in remembrance of me.
26 As often as for (when *N(k)O*) you shall eat bread this and cup (this *K*) may drink, the death of the Lord you proclaim until that (when *k*) He may come.
For as often as ye shall eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye announce the death of the Lord, until he come.
27 Therefore who[ever] maybe may eat bread (this *K*) or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily (of the-Lord *O*) guilty will be of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
So that whosoever shall eat the bread, or drink the cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty in respect of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
28 should examine however a man himself, and in this manner of the bread he should eat and of the cup he should drink;
But let a man prove himself, and thus eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.
29 The [one] for eating and drinking (unworthily *K*) judgment on himself he eats and he drinks not discerning the body (of the *k*) (Lord. *K*)
For [the] eater and drinker eats and drinks judgment to himself, not distinguishing the body.
30 Because of this among you many [are] weak and sick, and are fallen asleep many.
On this account many among you [are] weak and infirm, and a good many are fallen asleep.
31 If (for *N(k)O*) ourselves we were judging, not then would we were come under judgment;
But if we judged ourselves, so were we not judged.
32 Being judged however by (the *no*) Lord we are disciplined, so that not with the world we may be condemned.
But being judged, we are disciplined of [the] Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
33 So then, brothers of mine, coming together in order to eat one another do wait for;
So that, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait for one another.
34 If (now *k*) anyone is hungry, at home he should eat, so that not for judgment you may come together. And the other things as soon as when I may come I will set in order.
If any one be hungry, let him eat at home, that ye may not come together for judgment. But the other things, whenever I come, I will set in order.
