20ButG1161 nowG3568 are they manyG4183 membersG3196, yetG3303 butG1161 oneG1520 bodyG4983. 21AndG1161 the eyeG3788 cannotG1410 sayG3004 unto the handG3588G5495, I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of theeG4771: norG2228 againG3825 the headG3588G2776 to the feetG3588G4228, I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of youG4771. 22NayG235, muchG4183 moreG3123 those membersG3196 of the bodyG3588G4983, whichG3588 seemG1380 to beG5225 more feebleG772, areG1510 necessaryG316: 23AndG2532 thoseG3588 members of the bodyG4983, whichG3739 we thinkG1380 to beG1510 less honourableG820, upon theseG3778 we bestowG4060 more abundantG4053 honourG5092; andG2532 ourG1473 uncomelyG809 parts haveG2192 more abundantG4053 comelinessG2157. 24ForG1161 ourG1473 comelyG2158 parts haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532: butG235 GodG3588G2316 hath temperedG4786 the bodyG3588G4983 togetherG4786, having givenG1325 more abundantG4053 honourG5092 to thatG3588 part which lackedG5302: 25ThatG2443 there should beG1510 noG3361 schismG4978 inG1722 the bodyG3588G4983; butG235 that the membersG3588G3196 should haveG3309 the sameG846 careG3309 oneG240 forG5228 anotherG240. 26AndG2532 whetherG1535 oneG1520 memberG3196 sufferG3958, allG3956 the membersG3588G3196 suffer with itG4841; orG1535 oneG1520 memberG3196 be honouredG1392, allG3956 the membersG3588G3196 rejoice with itG4796.
