12:12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.

12:16 And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

12:22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
12:22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
12:23 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.
12:23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,

12:24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
12:25 That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.
12:25 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
