    23And those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow greater honor, and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty.

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

    26And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

    27Now you are the body of Christ and members individually.
