11 (A)Mundabireko nga nange bwe ndabira ku Kristo.

Okubikka ku mutwe mu kusinza

(B)Mbatenda nnyo Olw’okunzijjukiza mu bintu byonna era n’olw’okunyweza ebyo bye nabayigiriza. (C)Kyokka njagala mutegeere nti Kristo ye mutwe gwa buli muntu, n’omusajja gwe mutwe gwa mukazi we. Era Katonda ye mutwe gwa Kristo. Noolwekyo omusajja yenna bw’asaba oba bw’ayogera eby’obunnabbi nga taggyeko kibikka ku mutwe gwe, aba aswaza omutwe gwe. (D)N’omukazi bw’asaba oba n’ayogera eby’obunnabbi nga tabisse mutwe gwe aba tawadde bba kitiibwa kubanga kyekimu n’oyo amwereddwako enviiri. Obanga omukazi tayagala kubikka ku mutwe gwe, kale enviiri ze azisalengako. Naye obanga omukazi kimuswaza enviiri ze okuzisalako oba okuzimwako, kale ateekwa omutwe gwe okugubikkangako. (E)Omusajja tasaana kubikka ku mutwe gwe, kubanga ye kye kifaananyi n’ekitiibwa kya Katonda; naye omukazi ye ky’ekitiibwa ky’omusajja. (F)Kubanga omusajja teyatondebwa ng’aggibwa mu mukazi, wabula omukazi ow’olubereberye ye yaggyibwa mu musajja. (G)Era omusajja teyatondebwa lwa mukazi, wabula omukazi ye yatondebwa olw’omusajja. 10 Kale olw’ensonga eyo, omukazi kimusaanira okubikkanga ku mutwe gwe, okulaga nti afugibwa era ne bamalayika bakirabe. 11 Kyokka mu Mukama waffe, omukazi n’omusajja, buli omu yeetaaga munne. 12 (H)Kuba, newaakubadde ng’omukazi ava mu musajja, naye buli musajja azaalibwa mukazi; kyokka byonna biva eri Katonda.

13 Kale nammwe bennyini mwebuuze obanga kisaana omukazi okusaba Katonda nga tabisse ku mutwe. 14 Obuzaaliranwa tebubalaga ng’omusajja bw’aba n’enviiri empanvu tekimuweesa kitiibwa, 15 ate ng’omukazi ye zimuweesa kitiibwa? Kubanga yaweebwa enviiri empanvu okumubikkako. 16 (I)Naye obanga waliwo ayagala okuwakanya bino, tetulinaayo nkola nga eyo, wadde mu Kkanisa za Katonda.

Ekyekiro kya Mukama waffe

17 (J)Mu bino bye ŋŋenda okubalagira temuli kya kubatenda, kubanga enkuŋŋaana zammwe zivaamu bibi okusinga ebirungi. 18 (K)Ekisooka bwe mukuŋŋaana ng’ekibiina, mwesalaasalamu ebitundu, era nzikiriza ng’ebimu ku ebyo bituufu. 19 (L)Naye okwesalaasalamu okwo kusaana kubeewo abatuufu balyoke bategeerekeke. 20 Bwe mukuŋŋaana ekyo kye mulya si kye kyekiro kya Mukama waffe. 21 (M)Kubanga bwe muba mulya buli omu alya ku lulwe, talinda banne. Abamu basigala bakyali bayala, ng’abalala bo batamidde.

22 (N)Temulina wammwe gye muyinza okuliira n’okunywera? Oba munyooma ekkanisa ya Katonda, ne muswaza abaavu? Mbagambe ki? Mbatende olw’ekyo? Nedda na katono, sijja kubatenda. 23 (O)Kubanga Mukama yennyini kye yampa ky’ekyo kye nabayigiriza nti, Mukama waffe Yesu, mu kiro kiri kye baamuliiramu olukwe, yaddira omugaati, 24 ne yeebaza Katonda, n’agumenyaamenyamu, n’agamba nti, “Guno mubiri gwange, oguweebwayo ku lwammwe, mugutoole mulye, mukolenga bwe mutyo okunzijukiranga.” 25 (P)Era mu ngeri y’emu bwe baamala okulya, yaddira ekikompe n’agamba nti, “Ekikompe kino y’endagaano empya ekoleddwa Katonda nammwe, ekakasiddwa n’omusaayi gwange, mutoole munywe, mukolenga bwe mutyo buli lwe munaakinywangako okunzijukiranga.” 26 Kubanga buli lwe munaalyanga omugaati guno ne buli lwe munaanywanga ku kikompe, munaategeezanga abantu okufa kwa Mukama waffe okutuusa Lw’alijja.

27 (Q)Noolwekyo buli alya omugaati guno oba anywa ku kikompe kya Mukama waffe nga tasaanidde, azza omusango ku mubiri gwa Mukama waffe, ne ku musaayi gwe. 28 (R)Noolwekyo omuntu amalenga kwekebera, alyoke alye ku mugaati n’okunywa ku kikompe. 29 Kubanga buli alya era anywa nga tafaayo kutegeera makulu ga mubiri gwa Mukama waffe, aba yeesalidde yekka omusango okumusinga. 30 Mu mmwe kyemuvudde mubaamu abanafu n’abalwadde, era bangi bafudde. 31 (S)Naye singa tusooka okwekebera, tetwandisaliddwa musango kutusinga. 32 (T)Kyokka Mukama bw’atusalira omusango aba atukangavvula tuleme kusalirwa musango awamu n’ensi. 33 Kale baganda bange, bwe mukuŋŋaananga awamu okulya, buli omu alinde munne. 34 (U)Era singa wabaawo alumwa enjala amale okulya eka, bwe mukuŋŋaana muleme kwereetako musango. N’ebirala ndibirongoosa, we ndijjira wonna.

11 Follow my example,(A) as I follow the example of Christ.(B)

On Covering the Head in Worship

I praise you(C) for remembering me in everything(D) and for holding to the traditions just as I passed them on to you.(E) But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ,(F) and the head of the woman is man,[a](G) and the head of Christ is God.(H) Every man who prays or prophesies(I) with his head covered dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies(J) with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved.(K) For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

A man ought not to cover his head,[b] since he is the image(L) and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man;(M) neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.(N) 10 It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own[c] head, because of the angels. 11 Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. 12 For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.(O)

13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14 Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. 16 If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice—nor do the churches of God.(P)

Correcting an Abuse of the Lord’s Supper(Q)

17 In the following directives I have no praise for you,(R) for your meetings do more harm than good. 18 In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions(S) among you, and to some extent I believe it. 19 No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God’s approval.(T) 20 So then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat, 21 for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers.(U) As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk. 22 Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God(V) by humiliating those who have nothing?(W) What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you?(X) Certainly not in this matter!

23 For I received from the Lord(Y) what I also passed on to you:(Z) The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body,(AA) which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant(AB) in my blood;(AC) do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.(AD)

27 So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.(AE) 28 Everyone ought to examine themselves(AF) before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29 For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. 30 That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.(AG) 31 But if we were more discerning with regard to ourselves, we would not come under such judgment.(AH) 32 Nevertheless, when we are judged in this way by the Lord, we are being disciplined(AI) so that we will not be finally condemned with the world.(AJ)

33 So then, my brothers and sisters, when you gather to eat, you should all eat together. 34 Anyone who is hungry(AK) should eat something at home,(AL) so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment.

And when I come(AM) I will give further directions.

But every woman who prays or prophesies with no covering of hair dishonors her head—she is just like one of the “shorn women.” If a woman has no covering, let her be for now with short hair; but since it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair shorn or shaved, she should grow it again.
