1 Corinthians 12:14-25

14For alsoG2532 the bodyG4983 isG1510 not oneG1520 memberG3196 but manyG4183.

15If the footG4228 sayG3004, Because I amG1510 not a handG5495 I amG1510 not of the bodyG4983, isG1510 it on account of this not indeed of the bodyG4983?

16And if the earG3775 sayG3004, Because I amG1510 not an eyeG3788 I amG1510 not of the bodyG4983, isG1510 it on account of this not indeed of the bodyG4983?

17If the wholeG3650 bodyG4983 [were] an eyeG3788, whereG4226 the hearingG189? if all hearingG189, whereG4226 the smelling?

18But nowG1161 1GodG2316 has setG5087 the membersG3196, each oneG1520 of them in the bodyG4983, according as it has pleased [him].

19But if all wereG1510 oneG1520 memberG3196, whereG4226 the bodyG4983?

20But nowG1161 the membersG3196 [are] manyG4183, and the bodyG4983 oneG1520.

21The eyeG3788 cannot sayG3004 to the handG5495, I have not needG5532 of thee; or againG3825, the headG2776 to the feetG4228, I have not needG5532 of you.

22But muchG4183 ratherG3123, the membersG3196 of the bodyG4983 which seemG1380 to beG1510 weakerG772 areG1510 necessaryG316;

23and those [parts] of the bodyG4983 which we esteem to beG1510 the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;

24but our comely [parts] have not needG5532. But 2GodG2316 has tempered the bodyG4983 together, having givenG1325 more abundant honour to [the part] that lackedG5302;

25that there might beG1510 no divisionG4978 in the bodyG4983, but that the membersG3196 might have the sameG846 concern oneG240 for another.
