1 Corinthians 12:18-26
18But nowG3568 GodG2316 has 1placedG5087 the membersG3196, eachG1538 oneG1520 of them, in the bodyG4983, 2justG2531 as He desiredG2309. 19IfG1487 they were allG3956 oneG1520 memberG3196, whereG4226 would the bodyG4983 be? 20But nowG3568 3there are manyG4183 membersG3196, but oneG1520 bodyG4983. 21And the eyeG3788 cannotG1410G3756 sayG3004 to the handG5495, “I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of you”; orG2228 againG3825 the headG2776 to the feetG4228, “I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of you.” 22On the contraryG235, 4it is muchG4183 truerG3123 that the membersG3196 of the bodyG4983 which seemG1380 to be weakerG772 are necessaryG316; 23and those members of the bodyG4983 whichG3739 we 5deemG1380 lessG820 honorableG820, 6on theseG3778 we bestowG4060 moreG4053 abundantG4053 honorG5092, and our lessG820 presentableG809 members becomeG2192 muchG4053 moreG4053 presentableG2157, 24whereasG1161 our moreG4053 presentableG2158 members haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of it. But GodG2316 has so composedG4786 the bodyG4983, givingG1325 moreG4053 abundantG4053 honorG5092 to that member which lackedG5302, 25soG2443 that there may be noG3361 7divisionG4978 in the bodyG4983, but that the membersG3196 may haveG3309 the sameG846 careG3309 for oneG240 anotherG240. 26And ifG1535 oneG1520 memberG3196 suffersG3958, allG3956 the membersG3196 sufferG4841 with it; ifG1535 one memberG3196 is 8honoredG1392, allG3956 the membersG3196 rejoiceG4796 with it.
