19. So if they were all one part, how would it be a body?
20. But instead, there are many parts, indeed, yet one body.
21. And the eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need for your works." And again, the head cannot say to the feet, "You are of no use to me."
22. In fact, so much more necessary are those parts of the body which seem to be weaker.
23. And though we consider certain parts of the body to be less noble, we surround these with more abundant dignity, and so, those parts which are less presentable end up with more abundant respect.
24. However, our presentable parts have no such need, since God has tempered the body together, distributing the more abundant honor to that which has the need,
25. so that there might be no schism in the body, but instead the parts themselves might take care of one another.
26. And so, if one part suffers anything, all the parts suffer with it. Or, if one part finds glory, all the parts rejoice with it.
27. Now you are the body of Christ, and parts like any part.
28. And indeed, God has established a certain order in the Church: first Apostles, second Prophets, third Teachers, next miracle-workers, and then the grace of healing, of helping others, of governing, of different kinds of languages, and of the interpretation of words.
