Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
1Imitatores mei estote, sicut et ego Christi.
2Now I commend you for remembering me in everything and for maintaining the traditions, just as I passed them on to you.
2Laudo autem vos fratres quod per omnia mei memores estis: et sicut tradidi vobis, præcepta mea tenetis.
3But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
3Volo autem vos scire quod omnis viri caput, Christus est: caput autem mulieris, vir: caput vero Christi, Deus.
4Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
4Omnis vir orans, aut prophetans velato capite, deturpat caput suum.
5And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for it is just as if her head were shaved.
5Omnis autem mulier orans, aut prophetans non velato capite, deturpat caput suum: unum enim est ac si decalvetur.
6If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off. And if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.
6Nam si non velatur mulier, tondeatur. Si vero turpe est mulieri tonderi, aut decalvari, velet caput suum.
7A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
7Vir quidem non debet velare caput suum: quoniam imago et gloria Dei est, mulier autem gloria viri est.
8For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.
8Non enim vir ex muliere est, sed mulier ex viro.
9Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
9Etenim non est creatus vir propter mulierem, sed mulier propter virum.
10For this reason a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.
10Ideo debet mulier potestatem habere supra caput propter angelos.
11In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
11Verumtamen neque vir sine muliere: neque mulier sine viro in Domino.
12For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
12Nam sicut mulier de viro, ita et vir per mulierem: omnia autem ex Deo.
13Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
13Vos ipsi judicate: decet mulierem non velatam orare Deum?
14Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
14Nec ipsa natura docet vos, quod vir quidem si comam nutriat, ignominia est illi:
15but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
15mulier vero si comam nutriat, gloria est illi: quoniam capilli pro velamine ei dati sunt.
16If anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.
16Si quis autem videtur contentiosus esse: nos talem consuetudinem non habemus, neque ecclesia Dei.
17In the following instructions I have no praise to offer, because your gatherings do more harm than good.
17Hoc autem præcipio: non laudans quod non in melius, sed in deterius convenitis.
18First of all, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.
18Primum quidem convenientibus vobis in ecclesiam, audio scissuras esse inter vos, et ex parte credo.
19And indeed, there must be differences among you to show which of you are approved.
19Nam oportet et hæreses esse, ut et qui probati sunt, manifesti fiant in vobis.
20Now then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat.
20Convenientibus ergo vobis in unum, jam non est Dominicam cœnam manducare.
21For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without sharing his meal. While one remains hungry, another gets drunk.
21Unusquisque enim suam cœnam præsumit ad manducandum, et alius quidem esurit, alius autem ebrius est.
22Don’t you have your own homes in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What can I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? No, I will not!
22Numquid domos non habetis ad manducandum, et bibendum? aut ecclesiam Dei contemnitis, et confunditis eos qui non habent? Quid dicam vobis? laudo vos? in hoc non laudo.
23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread,
23Ego enim accepi a Domino quod et tradidi vobis, quoniam Dominus Jesus in qua nocte tradebatur, accepit panem,
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.”
24et gratias agens fregit, et dixit: Accipite, et manducate: hoc est corpus meum, quod pro vobis tradetur: hoc facite in meam commemorationem.
25In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
25Similiter et calicem, postquam cœnavit, dicens: Hic calix novum testamentum est in meo sanguine: hoc facite quotiescumque bibetis, in meam commemorationem.
26For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.
26Quotiescumque enim manducabitis panem hunc, et calicem bibetis, mortem Domini annuntiabitis donec veniat.
27Therefore, 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.
27Itaque quicumque manducaverit panem hunc, vel biberit calicem Domini indigne, reus erit corporis et sanguinis Domini.
28Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
28Probet autem seipsum homo: et sic de pane illo edat, et de calice bibat.
29For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.
29Qui enim manducat et bibit indigne, judicium sibi manducat et bibit, non dijudicans corpus Domini.
30That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.
30Ideo inter vos multi infirmi et imbecilles, et dormiunt multi.
31Now if we judged ourselves properly, we would not come under judgment.
31Quod si nosmetipsos dijudicaremus, non utique judicaremur.
32But when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.
32Dum judicamur autem, a Domino corripimur, ut non cum hoc mundo damnemur.
33So, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
33Itaque fratres mei, cum convenitis ad manducandum, invicem exspectate.
34If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you come together it will not result in judgment. And when I come, I will give instructions about the remaining matters.
34Si quis esurit, domi manducet, ut non in judicium conveniatis. Cetera autem, cum venero, disponam.
