15 But if a woman hath long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.
16 But if any man seemeth to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
17 Now in this that I declare [to you], I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they who are approved may be made manifest among you.
