1 Corinthians 12:18-23
18But now God has 1arranged the parts, each one of them in the body, 2just as He desired.
19If they were all one part, where would the body be?
20But now 3there are many parts, but one body.
21And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; or again, the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
22On the contrary, 4it is much truer that the parts of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
23and those parts of the body which we 5consider less honorable, 6on these we bestow greater honor, and our less presentable parts become much more presentable,
