###### 1
Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.
## Head Coverings
###### 2
Now I praise you because you remember me in everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.
###### 3
But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.
###### 4
Every man who has _something_ on his head while praying or prophesying, shames his head.
###### 5
But every woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying, shames her head, for she is one and the same as the woman whose head is shaved.
###### 6
For if a woman does not cover her head, let her also have her hair cut short. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut short or her head shaved, let her cover her head.
###### 7
For a man ought not to have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of man.
###### 8
For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man.
###### 9
For indeed man was not created for the woman's sake, but woman for the man's sake.
###### 10
Therefore the woman ought to have _a symbol of_ authority on her head, because of the angels.
###### 11
Nevertheless, in the Lord, neither is woman independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
###### 12
For as the woman originates from the man, so also the man _has his birth_ through the woman, but all things originate from God.
###### 13
Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to God _with her head_ uncovered?
###### 14
Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him,
###### 15
but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? For her hair is given to her for a covering.
###### 16
But if one is inclined to be contentious, we have no other practice, nor have the churches of God.
## The Lord's Supper
###### 17
But in giving this instruction, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.
###### 18
For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that divisions exist among you, and in part I believe it.
###### 19
For there must also be factions among you, so that those who are approved may become evident among you.
###### 20
Therefore when you meet together in the same _place_, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper,
###### 21
for in your eating each one takes his own supper first, and one is hungry and another is drunk.
###### 22
For do you not have houses in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I will not praise you.
###### 23
For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was being betrayed took bread,
###### 24
and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, **"This is My body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of Me."**
###### 25
In the same way _He took_ the cup also after supper, saying, **"This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink _it_, in remembrance of Me."**
###### 26
For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until He comes.
###### 27
Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
###### 28
But a man must test himself, and in so doing he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
###### 29
For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly.
###### 30
For this reason many among you are weak and sick, and a number sleep.
###### 31
But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged.
###### 32
But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world.
###### 33
So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
###### 34
If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you will not come together for judgment. The remaining matters I will direct when I come.
