ACV(i)
13 For also by one Spirit we are all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or freemen, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit.
14 For the body also is not one part, but many.
15 If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.
16 And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.
17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
18 But now God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body just as he intended.
19 And if they were all one part, where would be the body?
20 But now of course there are many body-parts, but one body.
21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee, nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
22 Instead, much more the parts of the body that seem to be more feeble are necessary.
23 And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety,
24 whereas our presentable parts have no need. Instead, God united the body together, having given more abundant worth to the part that lacks,
25 so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other.
26 And if one part suffers, all the parts suffer together, or one part is honored, all the parts rejoice together.
27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and body-parts individually.
