Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752

1 Corinthians 11:12-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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

13. You yourselves judge: doth it become a woman, to pray unto God uncovered?

14. Doth not even nature itself teach you, that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him?

15. But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.

16. But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the church of God.

17. Now this I ordain: not praising you, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse.
