English Bible Presentation Sharing - 1-Corinthians Book, chapter 11, verse 34 in Ncv Version

1 Corinthians 11 : 1 (NCV)

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

1 Corinthians 11 : 2 (NCV)

I praise you because you remember me in everything, and you follow closely the teachings just as I gave them to you.

1 Corinthians 11 : 3 (NCV)

But I want you to understand this: The head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

1 Corinthians 11 : 4 (NCV)

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

1 Corinthians 11 : 5 (NCV)

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.

1 Corinthians 11 : 6 (NCV)

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.

1 Corinthians 11 : 7 (NCV)

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

1 Corinthians 11 : 8 (NCV)

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

1 Corinthians 11 : 9 (NCV)

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

1 Corinthians 11 : 10 (NCV)

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

1 Corinthians 11 : 11 (NCV)

But in the Lord women are not independent of men, and men are not independent of women.

1 Corinthians 11 : 12 (NCV)

This is true because woman came from man, but also man is born from woman. But everything comes from God.

1 Corinthians 11 : 13 (NCV)

Decide this for yourselves: Is it right for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

1 Corinthians 11 : 14 (NCV)

Even nature itself teaches you that wearing long hair is shameful for a man.

1 Corinthians 11 : 15 (NCV)

But long hair is a woman's glory. Long hair is given to her as a covering.

1 Corinthians 11 : 16 (NCV)

Some people may still want to argue about this, but I would add that neither we nor the churches of God have any other practice.

1 Corinthians 11 : 17 (NCV)

In the things I tell you now I do not praise you, because when you come together you do more harm than good.

1 Corinthians 11 : 18 (NCV)

First, I hear that when you meet together as a church you are divided, and I believe some of this.

1 Corinthians 11 : 19 (NCV)

(It is necessary to have differences among you so that it may be clear which of you really have God's approval.)

1 Corinthians 11 : 20 (NCV)

When you come together, you are not really eating the Lord's Supper.

1 Corinthians 11 : 21 (NCV)

This is because when you eat, each person eats without waiting for the others. Some people do not get enough to eat, while others have too much to drink.

1 Corinthians 11 : 22 (NCV)

You can eat and drink in your own homes! You seem to think God's church is not important, and you embarrass those who are poor. What should I tell you? Should I praise you? I do not praise you for doing this.

1 Corinthians 11 : 23 (NCV)

The teaching I gave you is the same teaching I received from the Lord: On the night when the Lord Jesus was handed over to be killed, he took bread

1 Corinthians 11 : 24 (NCV)

and gave thanks for it. Then he broke the bread and said, "This is my body; it is for you. Do this to remember me."

1 Corinthians 11 : 25 (NCV)

In the same way, after they ate, Jesus took the cup. He said, "This cup is the new agreement that is sealed with the blood of my death. When you drink this, do it to remember me."

1 Corinthians 11 : 26 (NCV)

Every time you eat this bread and drink this cup you are telling others about the Lord's death until he comes.

1 Corinthians 11 : 27 (NCV)

So a person who eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in a way that is not worthy of it will be guilty of sinning against the body and the blood of the Lord.

1 Corinthians 11 : 28 (NCV)

Look into your own hearts before you eat the bread and drink the cup,

1 Corinthians 11 : 29 (NCV)

because all who eat the bread and drink the cup without recognizing the body eat and drink judgment against themselves.

1 Corinthians 11 : 30 (NCV)

That is why many in your group are sick and weak, and many have died.

1 Corinthians 11 : 31 (NCV)

But if we judged ourselves in the right way, God would not judge us.

1 Corinthians 11 : 32 (NCV)

But when the Lord judges us, he punishes us so that we will not be destroyed along with the world.

1 Corinthians 11 : 33 (NCV)

So my brothers and sisters, when you come together to eat, wait for each other.

1 Corinthians 11 : 34 (NCV)

Anyone who is too hungry should eat at home so that in meeting together you will not bring God's judgment on yourselves. I will tell you what to do about the other things when I come.
