1 Corinthians 11:6

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

If 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.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

For{G1063} if{G1487} the woman{G1135} be{G2619} not{G3756} covered{G2619}{(G5743)}, let her{G2751} also{G2532} be shorn{G2751}{(G5669)}: but{G1161} if{G1487} it be a shame{G149} for a woman{G1135} to be shorn{G2751}{(G5670)} or{G2228} shaven{G3587}{(G5745)}, let her be covered{G2619}{(G5744)}.
Strong's King James
(6) For if a woman doesn't veil herself, let her also have her hair cut off and if it's disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or herself shaved, let her cover herself.
The F.O.G*
[6] If a woman chooses not to cover her head, she might as well cut her hair short. But since shaved heads carry shame in our culture, let her embrace the covering that honors both her and her Creator.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for if a woman is not covered—then let her be shorn, and if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven—let her be covered;
