ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૧૧:૮
કેમ કે પુરુષ સ્ત્રીથી થયો નથી, પણ સ્ત્રી પુરુષથી.
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों ११:८
क्योंकि पुरुष स्त्री से नहीं हुआ, परन्तु स्त्री पुरुष से हुई है। (उत्प. 2:21-23)

In context

6For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered.

7For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.

8For man is not from woman, but woman from man;

9for man wasn’t created for the woman, but woman for the man.

10For this cause the woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.
