1 Corinthians 12

20 But now are they many members,

yet but one body.

21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand,

I have no need of thee:

nor again the head to the feet,

I have no need of you.

22 Nay, much more those members of the body,

which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

23 And those members of the body,

which we think to be less honourable,

upon these we bestow more abundant honour;

and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.

24 For our comely parts have no need:

but God hath tempered the body together,

having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:

25 That there should be no schism in the body;

but that the members should have the same care one for another.

26 And whether one member suffer,

all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured,

all the members rejoice with it.

27 Now ye are the body of Christ,

and members in particular.
