1 Corinthians 11:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 Therefore if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: and if it be shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
7 [a]For a man ought not to cover his head: forasmuch as he is the (A)image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
8 [b]For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

1 Corinthians 11:6-8
New International Version
6 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.
7 A man ought not to cover his head,[a] since he is the image(A) and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man;(B)

- 1 Corinthians 11:7 Or 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with long hair dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with no covering of hair dishonors her head—she is just like one of the “shorn women.” 6 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. 7 A man ought not to have long hair
