1 Corinthians 12:14-25

14For 1the bodyG4983 is not oneG1520 partG3196, but manyG4183.

15IfG1437 the footG4228 saysG3004, “BecauseG3754 I amG1510 not a handG5495, I amG1510 not a part of the bodyG4983,” it is not for thisG3778 reasonG3844 2anyG3756 lessG3756 a part of the bodyG4983.

16And ifG1437 the earG3775 saysG3004, “BecauseG3754 I amG1510 not an eyeG3788, I amG1510 not a part of the bodyG4983,” it is not for thisG3778 reasonG3844 3anyG3756 lessG3756 a part of the bodyG4983.

17IfG1487 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983 were an eyeG3788, whereG4226 would the hearingG189 be? IfG1487 the wholeG3650 body were hearingG189, whereG4226 would the senseG3750 ofG3750 smellG3750 be?

18But nowG3568 GodG2316 has 4arrangedG5087 the partsG3196, eachG1538 oneG1520 of them in the bodyG4983, 5justG2531 asG2531 He desiredG2309.

19IfG1487 they were allG3956 oneG1520 partG3196, whereG4226 would the bodyG4983 be?

20But nowG3568 6there are manyG4183 partsG3196, 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, 7it is muchG4183 truerG3123 that the partsG3196 of the bodyG4983 which seemG1380 to be weakerG772 are necessaryG316;

23and those parts of the bodyG4983 whichG3739 we 8considerG1380 lessG820 honorableG820, 9on theseG3778 we bestowG4060 greaterG4053 honorG5092, and our lessG809 presentableG809 parts becomeG2192 muchG4053 moreG4053 presentableG2157,

24whereasG1161 our moreG2158 presentableG2158 parts haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of it. But GodG2316 has so composedG4786 the bodyG4983, givingG1325 moreG4053 abundantG4053 honorG5092 to that part which lackedG5302,

25soG2443 thatG2443 there may be noG3361 10divisionG4978 in the bodyG4983, but that the partsG3196 may haveG3309 the sameG846 careG3309 for oneG240 anotherG240.
