New Testament

1 Corinthians 12:18-25 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

18. But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body just as he wanted.

19. And if they all were one member, where would the body be?

20. But now there are many members, but one body.

21. Now the eye is not able to say to the hand, “I do not have need of you,” or again, the head to the feet, “I do not have need of you.”

22. But by much more the members of the body which are thought to be weaker are necessary,

23. and the parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, these we clothe with more abundant honor, and our unpresentable parts come to have more abundant presentability,

24. but our presentable parts do not have need of this. Yet God composed the body by giving more abundant honor to the part which lacked it,

25. in order that there not be a division in the body, but the members would have the same concern for one another.
