1 Corinthians 12:14-20

New American Standard Bible

¹⁴ For ^(A)the body is not one part, but many. ¹⁵ If the foot says, “Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason ^[a]any less a part of the body. ¹⁶ And if the ear says, “Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason ^[b]any less a part of the body. ¹⁷ If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were hearing, where would the sense of smell be? ¹⁸ But now God has ^(B)arranged the parts, each one of them in the body, ^(C)just as He desired. ¹⁹ If they were all one part, where would the body be? ²⁰ But now ^(D)there are many parts, but one body.
