1 SED imitadores de mí, así como yo de Cristo.

2 Y os alabo, hermanos, que en todo os acordáis de mí, y retenéis las instrucciones [mías], de la manera que os enseñé.

3 Mas quiero que sepáis, que Cristo es la cabeza de todo varón; y el varón es la cabeza de la mujer; y Dios la cabeza de Cristo.

4 Todo varón que ora ó profetiza cubierta la cabeza, afrenta su cabeza.

5 Mas toda mujer que ora ó profetiza no cubierta su cabeza, afrenta su cabeza; porque lo mismo es que si se rayese.
