But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. 7&nbsp;For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8&nbsp;For man is not from woman, but woman from man. 9&nbsp;Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man. 10&nbsp;For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels. 11&nbsp;Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord. 12&nbsp;For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.13&nbsp;Judge among yourselves.
