1Corinthians 11 ERV — 1Corinthians 11

1 Be ye imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:1

2 Now I praise you that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:2

3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:3

4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:4

5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoureth her head: for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:5

6 For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn: but if it is a shame to a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:6

7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head veiled, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:7

8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man: ERV — 1Corinthians 11:8

9 for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man: ERV — 1Corinthians 11:9

10 for this cause ought the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:10

11 Howbeit neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:11

12 For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman; but all things are of God. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:12

13 Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled? ERV — 1Corinthians 11:13

14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonour to him? ERV — 1Corinthians 11:14

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:15

16 But if any man seemeth to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:16

17 But in giving you this charge, I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better but for the worse. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:17

18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:18

19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:19

20 When therefore ye assemble yourselves together, it is not possible to eat the Lord's supper: ERV — 1Corinthians 11:20

21 for in your eating each one taketh before other his own supper; and one is hungry, and another is drunken. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:21

22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:22

23 For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, how that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread; ERV — 1Corinthians 11:23

24 and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, This is my body, which is for you: this do in remembrance of me. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:24

25 In like manner also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:25

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lord's death till he come. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:26

27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:27

28 But let a man prove himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:28

29 For he that eateth and drinketh, eateth and drinketh judgment unto himself, if he discern not the body. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:29

30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:30

31 But if we discerned ourselves, we should not be judged. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:31

32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:32

33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait one for another. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:33

34 If any man is hungry, let him eat at home; that your coming together be not unto judgment. And the rest will I set in order whensoever I come. ERV — 1Corinthians 11:34
