For I say this, Shame to you. So, is there not a wise one among you, not even one in your midst who will be able to judge his brother?

Or does not nature herself teach you that if a man indeed wears long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
Be sober uprightly, and do not sin; for some have ignorance of God. I speak to your shame.
Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks to be a wise one among you in this age, let him become foolish, that he may become a wise one.

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask from God, the One giving to all bountifully and not reproaching, and it will be given to Him.
