New Century Version

1 Corinthians 11:4-10 New Century Version (NCV)

4. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered brings shame to his head.

5. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered brings shame to her head. She is the same as a woman who has her head shaved.

6. If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off. But since it is shameful for a woman to cut off her hair or to shave her head, she should cover her head.

7. But a man should not cover his head, because he is the likeness and glory of God. But woman is man’s glory.

8. Man did not come from woman, but woman came from man.

9. And man was not made for woman, but woman was made for man.

10. So that is why a woman should have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.
