    11All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and He distributes them to each one just as He wills.

    12Just as the body is one but has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so also is Christ.

    13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.

    14Indeed, the body is not one member but many.

    15If the foot should say, 'Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,' it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body.

    16And if the ear should say, 'Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,' it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body.

    17If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?

    18But now God has arranged the members, each one of them, in the body just as He desired.

    19If they were all one member, where would the body be?

    20But as it is, there are many members, yet one body.

    21The eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you,' nor can the head say to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'

    22On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable.

    23And the parts of the body that we think are less honorable, we bestow greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,

    24whereas our presentable parts have no need of it. But God has composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it,

    25so that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

    26If one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. If one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
