11:1 |
e yee followers of mee, euen as I also am of Christ. |
|
11:2 |
Now I prayse you, brethren, that you remember me in all things, and keepe the ordinances, as I deliuered them to you. |
|
11:3 |
But I would haue you knowe, that the head of euery man is Christ: and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. |
|
11:4 |
Euery man praying or prophecying, hauing his head couered, dishonoureth his head. |
|
11:5 |
But euery woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head vncouered, dishonoureth her head: for that is euen all one as if she were shauen. |
|
11:6 |
For if the woman be not couered, let her also bee shorne: but if it bee a shame for a woman to be shorne or shauen, let her be couered. |
|
11:7 |
For a man in deede ought not to couer his head, forasmuch as hee is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. |
|
11:8 |
For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. |
|
11:9 |
Neither was the man created for the woman: but the woman for the man. |
|
11:10 |
For this cause ought the woman to haue power on her head, because of the Angels. |
|
11:11 |
Neuerthelesse, neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man in the Lord. |
|
11:12 |
For as the woman is of the man: euen so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God. |
|
11:13 |
Iudge in your selues, is it comely that a woman pray vnto God vncouered? |
|
11:14 |
Doeth not euen nature it selfe teach you, that if a man haue long haire, it is a shame vnto him? |
|
11:15 |
But if a woman haue long haire, it is a glory to her: for her haire is giuen her for a couering. |
|
11:16 |
But if any man seeme to be contentious, we haue no such custome, neither the Churches of God. |
|
11:17 |
Now in this that I declare vnto you, I praise you not, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse. |
|
11:18 |
For first of all when yee come together in the Church, I heare that there be diuisions among you, and I partly beleeue it. |
|
11:19 |
For there must bee also heresies among you, that they which are approued may be made manifest among you. |
|
11:20 |
When yee come together therefore into one place, this is not to eate the Lords Supper. |
|
11:21 |
For in eating, euery one taketh before other, his owne supper: and one is hungry, and an other is drunken. |
|
11:22 |
What, haue ye not houses to eate and to drinke in? Or despise yee the Church of God, and shame them that haue not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I prayse you not. |
|
11:23 |
For I haue receiued of the Lord that which also I deliuered vnto you, that the Lord Iesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, tooke bread: |
|
11:24 |
And when he had giuen thanks, he brake it, and sayd, Take, eate, this is my body, which is broken for you: this doe in remembrance of mee. |
|
11:25 |
After the same manner also hee tooke the cup when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new Testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me. |
|
11:26 |
For as often as ye eate this bread, and drinke this cup, yee doe shew the Lords death till he come. |
|
11:27 |
Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke this cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. |
|
11:28 |
But let a man examine himselfe, and so let him eate of that bread, and drinke of that cup. |
|
11:29 |
For hee that eateth and drinketh vnworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himselfe, not discerning the Lords body. |
|
11:30 |
For this cause many are weake and sickly among you, and many sleepe. |
|
11:31 |
For if we would iudge our selues, we should not be iudged. |
|
11:32 |
But when we are iudged, we are chastened of the Lord, that wee should not be condemned with the world. |
|
11:33 |
Wherefore my brethren, when ye come together to eate, tary one for another. |
|
11:34 |
And if any man hunger, let him eate at home, that ye come not together vnto condemnation. And the rest wil I set in order, when I come. |
