1 Corinthians 12:22-26
New American Standard Bible 1995
22 On the contrary, [a]it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; 23 and those members of the body which we [b]deem less honorable, [c]on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our less presentable members become much more presentable, 24 whereas our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked, 25 so that there may be no [d]division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is [e]honored, all the members rejoice with it.
