“If a man's hair falls out from his head, he is bald; he is clean.
You know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first,
But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions.
I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on every waist and baldness on every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son and the end of it like a bitter day.
He has gone up to the temple, and to Dibon, to the high places to weep; over Nebo and over Medeba Moab wails. On every head is baldness; every beard is shorn;
His head is the finest gold; his locks are wavy, black as a raven.
He went up from there to Bethel, and while he was going up on the way, some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him, saying, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!”
And if a man's hair falls out from his forehead, he has baldness of the forehead; he is clean.
