Bible verses about "covering" | CLV

Proverbs 3:5-6

5 Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, And do not lean to your own understanding." 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He Himself shall straighten your paths."

1 Corinthians 11:1-34

1 Become imitators of me, according as I also am of Christ." 2 Now I am applauding you that you remember all of mine, and are retaining the traditions according as I give them over to you." 3 Now I want you to be aware that the Head of every man is Christ, yet the head of the woman is the man, yet the Head of Christ is God." 4 Every man praying or prophesying having aught on his head, is disgracing his Head." 5 Yet every woman praying or prophesying with uncovered head, is disgracing her head, for it is one and the same as being shaven." 6 For if a woman is not covering, let her be shorn also. Now if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covering." 7 For a man, indeed, ought not to be covering his head, being inherently the image and glory of God. Yet the woman is the glory of the man." 8 For man is not out of woman, but woman out of man." 9 For, also, man is not created because of the woman, but woman because of the man." 10 Therefore the woman ought to have authority over her head because of the messengers. 11 However, neither is woman apart from man, nor man apart from woman, in the Lord." 12 For even as the woman is out of the man, thus the man also is through the woman, yet all is of God." 13 Judge in yourselves: Is it becoming in a woman to be praying to God uncovered? 14 Is not even nature itself teaching you that if a man, indeed, should have tresses, it is a dishonor to him, 15 yet if a woman should have tresses, it is her glory, seeing that tresses have been given her instead of clothing? 16 Now if anyone is presuming to be rivalrous, we have no such usage, neither the ecclesias of God." 17 Now in giving this charge I am not applauding, for you are coming together, not for the better, but for discomfiture." 18 For first, indeed, at your coming together in the ecclesia, I am hearing of schisms inhering among you, and some part I am believing." 19 For it must be that there are sects also among you, that those also who are qualified may be becoming apparent among you." 20 Then, at your coming together in the same place, it is not to be eating the Lord's dinner, 21 for each one is getting his own dinner before in the eating, and one, indeed, is hungry, yet one is drunk." 22 For have you no homes at all in which to eat and drink? Or are you despising the ecclesia of God, and mortifying those who have nothing? What may I be saying to you? Shall I be applauding you in this? I am not applauding." 23 For I accepted from the Lord, what I give over also to you, that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which He was given up, took bread, 24 and giving thanks, breaks it and said, "This is My body, broken for your sakes. This do for a recollection of Me." 25 Similarly, the cup also, after dining, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you are drinking, for a recollection of Me." 26 For as often as you are eating this bread and drinking this cup, you are announcing the Lord's death until He should be coming." 27 So that, whoever should be eating the bread or drinking the cup of the Lord unworthily, will be liable for the body and the blood of the Lord." 28 Now let a man test himself first, and thus let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup." 29 For he who is eating and drinking unworthily is eating and drinking judgment to himself, not discriminating the body of the Lord." 30 Therefore many among you are infirm and ailing, and a considerable number are reposing." 31 For if we adjudicated ourselves, we would not be judged." 32 Yet, being judged, we are being disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world." 33 So that, my brethren, when coming together to eat, be waiting for one another." 34 Now if anyone may be hungry, let him eat at home, that you may not be coming together for judgment. Now the rest I shall be prescribing as soon as I should be coming."

Hebrews 2:14

14 Since, then, the little children have participated in blood and flesh, He also was very nigh by partaking of the same, that, through death, He should be discarding him who has the might of death, that is, the Adversary,

Proverbs 28:13

13 He who covers his transgressions shall not prosper, Yet he who confesses and forsakes them shall receive compassion."

Psalms 5:12

12 For You shall bless the righteous one, O Yahweh; Like a large shield, You shall encircle him with benevolence. {Permanent, With Accompaniments on the Octave{ "
