ertheless neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman
without the man in the Lord. (12)For as the woman was taken out of the
man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things are of God.
(13)Judge among yourselves, is it decent for a woman to be praying to
God without a covering? (14)Does not even nature itself teach you, that
if a man wear long flowing hair it is a dishonour to him? (15)But if a
woman let her hair flow, it is an ornament to her; for the hair was
given her for a covering, (16)But if any man mean to be contentious
about it, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God.

(17)But in the matter I am going to denounce, I do not commend you,
that ye meet together not for the better, but for the worse. (18)For in
the first place, when ye assemble in the church, I hear that there are
divisions among you; and I partly believe it. (19)For there must be
heresies among you, that they who are the tried ones, may be made
manifest among you.

(20)When therefore ye assemble in the same place, it is not to eat the
Lord's supper. (21)For one in the eating it taketh before another his
own supper: and one is hungry, and another drinks to excess. (22)What!
have ye not houses to eat in and to drink? or despise ye the church of
God, and make those ashamed who have none? What shall I say unto you?
shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. (23)For I received of the
Lord what also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night in
which he was betrayed, took a loaf: (24)and when he had blessed it, he
brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for
you: do this in remembrance of me. (25)In like manner also he took the
cup, after they had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my
blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. (26)For
as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew forth the
death of the Lord till he come. (27)Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this
bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the
body and blood of the Lord. (28)But let a man examine himself, and so
let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. (29)For he that eateth
and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh condemnation to himself,
not distinguishing the Lord's body. (30)For this cause many are
diseased and infirm among you, and some asleep _in death_. (31)For if
we thoroughly judged ourselves, we should not be judged of the Lord.
