Qorintiyim Aleph (1 Corinthians) 11
11
1Become imitators of me, as I also am of Messiah.
2And I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in every way and keep the traditions as I delivered them to you.
3And I wish you to know that the head of every man is the Messiah,#See Eph. 1:22; Eph. 4:15; Eph. 5:23 and the head of woman is the man,#See Gen. 3:16 and the head of Messiah is Elohim.#See 1Cor. 3:23; John 14:28
4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, brings shame to his Head.
5And every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered brings shame to her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.
6For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.#See Num. 5:18
7For a man indeed should not cover his head, since he is the likeness and esteem of Elohim, but woman is the esteem of man.
8For man is not from woman, but woman from man.
9For man also was not created for the woman, but woman for the man.
10Because of this the woman ought to have authority#Some say “a symbol of authority.” on her head, because of the messengers.
11However, man is not independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Master.
12For as the woman was from the man, even so the man also is through the woman. But all are from Elohim.
13Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to Elohim with her head uncovered?
14Does not nature itself teach you that if a man indeed has long hair, it is a disrespect to him?
15And if a woman has long hair, it is an esteem to her, because the long hair has been given to her over against a veil.
16If, however, anyone seems to be contentious, we do not have such a habit, nor do the assemblies of Elohim.
17And in declaring this I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse.
18For in the first place, I hear that when you come together as an assembly, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it.
19For there have to be factions even among you, so that the approved ones might be revealed among you.
20So when you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Master’s supper.
21For, when you eat, each one takes his own supper first, and one is hungry and another is drunk.
22Have you not houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the assembly of Elohim and shame those who have not? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise!
23For I received from the Master that which I also delivered to you: that the Master יהושע in the night in which He was delivered up took bread,
24and having given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat, this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
25In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the renewed covenant in My blood. As often as you drink it, do this in remembrance of Me.”
26For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Master until He comes.
27So that whoever should eat this bread or drink this cup of the Master unworthily shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Master.
28But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread and drink of that cup.
29For the one who is eating and drinking unworthily, eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Master.
30Because of this many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.
31For if we were to examine ourselves, we would not be judged.
32But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Master, that we should not be condemned with the world.
33So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
34And if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I shall set in order when I come.

1 Corinthians 11

1Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.
Head Coverings
2I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions just as I handed them on to you. 3But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the husband#11.3 The same Greek word means man or husband is the head of his wife,#11.3 Or head of the woman and God is the head of Christ. 4Any man who prays or prophesies with something on his head disgraces his head, 5but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled disgraces her head—it is one and the same thing as having her head shaved. 6For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, she should wear a veil. 7For a man ought not to have his head veiled, since he is the image and reflection#11.7 Or glory of God; but woman is the reflection#11.7 Or glory of man. 8Indeed, man was not made from woman, but woman from man. 9Neither was man created for the sake of woman, but woman for the sake of man. 10For this reason a woman ought to have a symbol of#11.10 Gk lacks a symbol of authority on her head,#11.10 Or have freedom of choice regarding her head because of the angels. 11Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man or man independent of woman. 12For just as woman came from man, so man comes through woman; but all things come from God. 13Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head unveiled? 14Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair, it is degrading to him, 15but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering. 16But if anyone is disposed to be contentious—we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.
Abuses at the Lord's Supper
17Now in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. 18For, to begin with, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and to some extent I believe it. 19Indeed, there have to be factions among you, for only so will it become clear who among you are genuine. 20When you come together, it is not really to eat the Lord's supper. 21For when the time comes to eat, each of you goes ahead with your own supper, and one goes hungry and another becomes drunk. 22What! Do you not have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you show contempt for the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What should I say to you? Should I commend you? In this matter I do not commend you!
The Institution of the Lord's Supper
23For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of bread, 24and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body that is for#11.24 Other ancient authorities read is broken for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25In 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.” 26For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
Partaking of the Supper Unworthily
27Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. 28Examine yourselves, and only then eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29For all who eat and drink#11.29 Other ancient authorities add in an unworthy manner, without discerning the body,#11.29 Other ancient authorities read the Lord's body eat and drink judgment against themselves. 30For this reason many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.#11.30 Gk fallen asleep 31But if we judged ourselves, we would not be judged. 32But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined#11.32 Or When we are judged, we are being disciplined by the Lord so that we may not be condemned along with the world.
33So then, my brothers and sisters,#11.33 Gk brothers when you come together to eat, wait for one another. 34If you are hungry, eat at home, so that when you come together, it will not be for your condemnation. About the other things I will give instructions when I come.
