11:1

Μιμηται μου γινεσθε καθως καγω Χριστου

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

11:2

Επαινω δε υμας οτι παντα μου μεμνησθε και καθως παρεδωκα υμιν τας παραδοσεις κατεχετε

Now I praise you that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.

11:3

Θελω δε υμας ειδεναι οτι παντος ανδρος η κεφαλη ο Χριστος εστιν κεφαλη δε γυναικος ο ανηρ κεφαλη δε του Χριστου ο Θεος

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.

11:4

Πας ανηρ προσευχομενος η προφητευων κατα κεφαλης εχων καταισχυνει την κεφαλην αυτου

Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head.

11:5

πασα δε γυνη προσευχομενη η προφητευουσα ακατακαλυπτω τη κεφαλη καταισχυνει την κεφαλην αυτης εν γαρ εστιν και το αυτο τη εξυρημενη

But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven.

11:6

ει γαρ ου κατακαλυπτεται γυνη και κειρασθω ει δε αισχρον γυναικι το κειρασθαι η ξυρασθαι κατακαλυπτεσθω

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.

11:7

Ανηρ μεν γαρ ουκ οφειλει κατακαλυπτεσθαι την κεφαλην εικων και δοξα Θεου υπαρχων η γυνη δε δοξα ανδρος εστιν

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.

11:8

ου γαρ εστιν ανηρ εκ γυναικος αλλα γυνη εξ ανδρος

For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man:

11:9

και γαρ ουκ εκτισθη ανηρ δια την γυναικα αλλα γυνη δια τον ανδρα

for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man:

11:10

δια τουτο οφειλει η γυνη εξουσιαν εχειν επι της κεφαλης δια τους αγγελους

for this cause ought the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.

11:11

Πλην ουτε γυνη χωρις ανδρος ουτε ανηρ χωρις γυναικος εν Κυριω

Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord.

11:12

ωσπερ γαρ η γυνη εκ του ανδρος ουτως και ο ανηρ δια της γυναικος τα δε παντα εκ του Θεου

For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman; but all things are of God.

11:13

Εν υμιν αυτοις κρινατε πρεπον εστιν γυναικα ακατακαλυπτον τω Θεω προσευχεσθαι

Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled?

11:14

ουδε η φυσις αυτη διδασκει υμας οτι ανηρ μεν εαν κομα ατιμια αυτω εστιν

Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

11:15

γυνη δε εαν κομα δοξα αυτη εστιν οτι η κομη αντι περιβολαιου δεδοται αυτη

But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

11:16

Ει δε τις δοκει φιλονεικος ειναι ημεις τοιαυτην συνηθειαν ουκ εχομεν ουδε αι εκκλησιαι του Θεου

But if any man seemeth to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

11:17

Τουτο δε παραγγελλων ουκ επαινω οτι ουκ εις το κρεισσον αλλα εις το ησσον συνερχεσθε

But in giving you this charge, I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better but for the worse.

11:18

πρωτον μεν γαρ συνερχομενων υμων εν εκκλησια ακουω σχισματα εν υμιν υπαρχειν και μερος τι πιστευω

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it.

11:19

δει γαρ και αιρεσεις εν υμιν ειναι ινα και οι δοκιμοι φανεροι γενωνται εν υμιν

For there must be also factions among you, that they that are approved may be made manifest among you.

11:20

Συνερχομενων ουν υμων επι το αυτο ουκ εστιν κυριακον δειπνον φαγειν

When therefore ye assemble yourselves together, it is not possible to eat the Lord’s supper:

11:21

εκαστος γαρ το ιδιον δειπνον προλαμβανει εν τω φαγειν και ος μεν πεινα ος δε μεθυει

for in your eating each one taketh before other his own supper; and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

11:22

μη γαρ οικιας ουκ εχετε εις το εσθιειν και πινειν η της εκκλησιας του Θεου καταφρονειτε και καταισχυνετε τους μη εχοντας τι ειπω υμιν επαινεσω υμας εν τουτω ουκ επαινω

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.

11:23

Εγω γαρ παρελαβον απο του Κυριου ο και παρεδωκα υμιν οτι ο Κυριος Ιησους εν τη νυκτι η παρεδιδετο ελαβεν αρτον

For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread;

11:24

και ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και ειπεν Τουτο μου εστιν το σωμα το υπερ υμων τουτο ποιειτε εις την εμην αναμνησιν

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.

11:25

ωσαυτως και το ποτηριον μετα το δειπνησαι λεγων Τουτο το ποτηριον η καινη διαθηκη εστιν εν τω εμω αιματι τουτο ποιειτε οσακις εαν πινητε εις την εμην αναμνησιν

In like manner also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

11:26

οσακις γαρ εαν εσθιητε τον αρτον τουτον και το ποτηριον πινητε τον θανατον του Κυριου καταγγελλετε αχρι ου ελθη

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lord’s death till he come.

11:27

Ωστε ος αν εσθιη τον αρτον η πινη το ποτηριον του Κυριου αναξιως ενοχος εσται του σωματος και του αιματος του Κυριου

Wherefore whosoever shall eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

¹

11:28

δοκιμαζετω δε ανθρωπος εαυτον και ουτως εκ του αρτου εσθιετω και εκ του ποτηριου πινετω

But let a man prove himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

11:29

ο γαρ εσθιων και πινων κριμα εαυτω εσθιει και πινει μη διακρινων το σωμα

For he that eateth and drinketh, eateth and drinketh judgment unto himself, if he discern not the body.

11:30

δια τουτο εν υμιν πολλοι ασθενεις και αρρωστοι και κοιμωνται ικανοι

For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.

11:31

Ει δε εαυτους διεκρινομεν ουκ αν εκρινομεθα

But if we discerned ourselves, we should not be judged.

11:32

κρινομενοι δε υπο του Κυριου παιδευομεθα ινα μη συν τω κοσμω κατακριθωμεν

But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

11:33

Ωστε αδελφοι μου συνερχομενοι εις το φαγειν αλληλους εκδεχεσθε

Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait one for another.

11:34

ει τις πεινα εν οικω εσθιετω ινα μη εις κριμα συνερχησθε Τα δε λοιπα ως αν ελθω διαταξομαι

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.
