1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.

2 Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. 3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. 5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved. 6 For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered. 7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man. 8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man; 9 for man wasn’t created for the woman, but woman for the man. 10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.

11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord. 12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God. 13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled? 14 Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? 15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering. 16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.

17 But in giving you this command I don’t praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. 18 For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it. 19 For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you. 20 When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat. 21 For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.

23 For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread. 24 When he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me." 25 In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me." 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the 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 who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body. 30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. 31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn’t be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world. 33 Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another. 34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.

1 Kia rite ta koutou ki taku, me taku ka rite nei ki ta te Karaiti.

2 Na, e whakamoemiti ana ahau ki a koutou, mo koutou ka mahara ki ahau i nga mea katoa, ka pupuri hoki i nga whakarerenga iho, i aku i tuku atu na ki a koutou.

3 Na e mea ana ahau kia matau koutou, ko te Karaiti te o nga tane katoa; ko te tane te o te wahine; ko te Atua ano te o te Karaiti.

4 Ko te tangata e inoi ana, e poropiti ana, me te hipoki ano te upoko, e whakaiti ana ia i tona upoko.

5 Ko te wahine ia e inoi ana, e poropiti ana ranei, kahore nei he hipoki o te upoko, e whakaiti ana ia i tona upoko: e rite tonu ana tena ano kua oti tona te heu.

6 Ki te kahore hoki te wahine e hipokina, kia waruhia hoki ia: ki te mea he mea whakama ki te wahine kia waruhia, kia heua ranei, me hipoki ia.

7 E kore hoki e tika mo te tane kia hipokina tona upoko, ko te ahua hoki ia, ko te kororia o te Atua: ko te wahine ia te kororia o te tane.

8 Ehara hoki i te mea no te wahine te tane, engari no te tane te wahine;

9 Kihai ano te tane i hanga ma te wahine, engari ko te wahine ma te tane.

10 Koia i tika ai hei runga i te o te wahine te tohu o te mana, he mea mo nga anahera.

11 Ahakoa ra, e kore te tane e motuhia ketia i te wahine, e kore ano te wahine e motuhia ketia i te tane, i roto i te Ariki.

12 No roto hoki i te tane te wahine, waihoki i na te wahine mai te tane: na te Atua ano ia nga mea katoa.

13 Ma koutou tonu e whakaaro: he mea pai ranei kia inoi hipokikore te wahine ki te Atua?

14 E kore ranei te whakaaro maori nei ano e ako i a koutou, ki te mea he makawe roroa o te tane, he mea whakatutua tera mona?

15 Tena ki te mea he makawe roroa o te wahine, he mea whakakororia tera mona: kua hoatu hoki ona makawe ki a ia hei hipoki.

16 Otira ki te mea he ahua totohe tetahi, kahore o matou ritenga pera, kahore hoki o nga hahi a te Atua.

17 I ahau ia e korero nei i tenei ki a koutou, kahore aku whakamoemiti ki a koutou, kahore hoki koutou e whakamine mo te pai, engari mo te kino.

18 Na ko te tuatahi, i a koutou ka whakamine ki roto ki te hahi, ka rongo ahau he wehewehenga kei roto i a koutou; a e whakapono ana ahau ki tetahi wahi.

19 Kua takoto hoki kia whai titorehanga koutou, kia kitea ai te hunga e paingia ana i roto i a koutou.

20 Na, ka huihui koutou ki te wahi kotahi, e kore e taea kia kai i te hapa a te Ariki:

21 I te mea hoki e kai ana koutou, ka kai tena, tena, i tana hapa i mua atu i tetahi: a ka hiakai tetahi, ka haurangi tetahi.

22 He aha? Kahore koia o koutou whare e kai ai, e inu ai koutou? e whakahawea ana ranei koutou ki te hahi a te Atua, e mea ana hoki kia whakama te hunga kahore nei a ratou mea? Kia pehea atu taku kupu ki a koutou? kia whakamoemiti oti ahau ki a kou tou mo tenei mea? e kore ra ahau e whakamoemiti.

23 Kua riro mai hoki i ahau i te Ariki taku i tuku atu ra ki a koutou, ara, i taua po i tukua ai ia, i tangohia e te Ariki, e Ihu, te taro:

24 A ka mutu te whakawhetai, ka whatia e ia, na ka mea ia, Tangohia, kainga; ko toku tinana tenei ka whatiwhatia nei mo koutou: meinga tenei hei whakamahara ki ahau.

25 Me te kapu ano i te mutunga o te hapa, me tana mea ano, Ko te kawenata hou tenei kapu i runga i oku toto: meinga tenei i nga inumanga katoa hei whakamahara ki ahau.

26 I nga wa katoa hoki e kai ai koutou i tenei taro, e inu ai i tenei kapu, e whakakitea ana e koutou te matenga o te Ariki, kia tae mai ra ano ia.

27 Mo reira ki te kai he tetahi, ki te inu he i te kapu a te Ariki, ka whai hara ia i te tinana, i nga toto, o te Ariki.

28 Engari kia uiui te tangata ki a ia ano, ka kai ai i taua taro, ka inu ai i taua kapu.

29 No te mea ki te kai he, ki te inu he tetahi, e kai ana, e inu ana i te whakawa mona, te whakaaro ko te tinana o te Ariki.

30 No konei hoki he tokomaha i roto i a koutou e ngoikore ana, e mate ana, he tokomaha ano kua moe.

31 Me i whakawa hoki tatou i a tatou ano, kihai i whakataua te he ki a tatou.

32 Ki te whakawakia ia tatou, he mea whakaako tatou na te Ariki, kei tukua ngatahitia tatou me te ao ki te he.

33 Heoi, e oku teina, ka huihui koutou ki te kai, me tatari tetahi ki tetahi.

34 Ki te hiakai tetahi, hei roto i tona whare kai ai; kei ai to koutou huihuinga hei take whakawa. Ko era atu mea hoki, maku e whakatika ina tae atu ahau.
