1 Corinthians 12:14-19

14For 1the body is not one member, but many.

15If the foot says, “Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason 2any the less a part of the body.

16And if the ear says, “Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason 3any the less a part of the body.

17If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of smell be?

18But now God has 4placed the members, each one of them, in the body, 5just as He desired.

19If they were all one member, where would the body be?
