Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:19 - If all were a single organ, where would the body be?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:20 - As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:21 - The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:22 - On the contrary, the parts of the body which seem to be weaker are indispensable,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:23 - and those parts of the body which we think less honorable we invest with the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:24 - which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the inferior part,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:25 - that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:26 - If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.
