1你们要效法我，正如我效法基督一样。
敬拜的礼仪
2我赞赏你们，因为你们凡事都想到我，并坚守我传给你们的各种教导。
3我希望你们知道，基督是男人的头，丈夫是妻子的头，上帝是基督的头。 4男人在祷告和讲道时，若蒙着头，就是羞辱自己的头。 5但妇女在祷告和讲道时，若不蒙着头，就是羞辱自己的头，因为她就像剃光了头发一样。 6因此，如果妇女不愿意把头蒙起来，就该把头发剪掉。如果她觉得剪发或剃头是羞耻的，就应该蒙头。 7然而，男人不该蒙头，因为男人是上帝的形象和荣耀，而女人是男人的荣耀。 8因为男人并非出自女人，而女人却是出自男人。 9并且男人不是为女人而造的，女人却是为男人而造的。
10因此为了天使的缘故，女人在头上应该有服权柄的记号。 11不过在主里面，女人不可没有男人，男人不可没有女人。 12因为女人是从男人而来，男人又是女人生的，但万物都是来自上帝。
13你们自行斟酌吧，女人向上帝祷告时不蒙头合适吗？ 14按着人的天性，难道你们不知道男人留长发是他的羞辱， 15女人留长发是她的荣耀吗？因为头发是用来给女人盖头的。 16如果有谁想反驳这些话，我只能说，这是我们和上帝的众教会向来遵守的规矩。
守圣餐的规矩
17现在我有话要吩咐你们，不是称赞你们，因为你们聚会不但无益，反而有害。 18首先，我听说你们在聚会的时候拉帮结派，我相信这些话有几分真实。 19你们中间必然会有分裂的事，好显出谁是经得起考验的。
20你们聚会的时候，不是在吃主的晚餐。 21因为你们进餐的时候，各人只顾吃自己的，结果有些人挨饿，有些人醉酒。 22难道你们不可以在家里吃喝吗？还是你们轻看上帝的教会，存心羞辱那些贫穷的弟兄姊妹呢？我该说什么呢？称赞你们吗？不可能！
23我把从主领受的传给了你们，就是：主耶稣被出卖的那天晚上，祂拿起一个饼来， 24向上帝祝谢后掰开，说，“这是我的身体，是为你们掰开的，你们要这样做，为的是纪念我。” 25晚餐后，祂又照样拿起杯来，说，“这杯是用我的血立的新约。你们每逢喝的时候，要这样做，为的是纪念我。” 26所以，每当你们吃这饼、喝这杯的时候，就是宣告主的死，一直到主再来。
27因此，无论是谁，若以不正确的心态吃主的饼、喝主的杯，就是得罪主的身体和主的血。 28所以，人要先自我省察，才可以吃这饼喝这杯。 29因为守圣餐的时候，若有人随便吃喝，忘记了这是主的身体，他就是自招审判。 30正因如此，你们当中有许多人身体软弱，疾病缠身，死亡的也不少。 31如果我们先自我省察，就不会遭受审判了。 32主审判我们，是对我们的管教，免得我们和世人一同被定罪。
33因此，我的弟兄姊妹，当你们吃圣餐时，要彼此等候。 34如果有人饥饿，可以在家中先吃，免得你们聚会的时候自招审判。至于其余的事，等我到了以后再安排。
1Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.
On Covering the Head in Worship
2I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the traditions just as I passed them on to you. 3But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man,11:3 Or of the wife is her husband and the head of Christ is God. 4Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. 5But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved. 6For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.
7A man ought not to cover his head,11:4-7 Or 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with long hair dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with no covering of hair dishonors her head—she is just like one of the “shorn women.” 6 If a woman has no covering, let her be for now with short hair; but since it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair shorn or shaved, she should grow it again. 7 A man ought not to have long hair since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; 9neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. 10It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own11:10 Or have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels. 11Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. 12For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
13Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 15but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. 16If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice—nor do the churches of God.
Correcting an Abuse of the Lord’s Supper
17In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good. 18In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it. 19No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God’s approval. 20So then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat, 21for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers. As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk. 22Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God by humiliating those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? Certainly not in this matter!
23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
27So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. 28Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. 30That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep. 31But if we were more discerning with regard to ourselves, we would not come under such judgment. 32Nevertheless, when we are judged in this way by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be finally condemned with the world.
33So then, my brothers and sisters, when you gather to eat, you should all eat together. 34Anyone who is hungry should eat something at home, so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment.
And when I come I will give further directions.
