*
Just as for the body one is ,
and members has many ,
all but the members of the body of the one ,
many being ,
one is body ;
thus also the Anointed .
*
Even for in one spirit we all into one body were dipped ;
whether Jews ,
or Greeks ,
whether slaves ,
or freeman ;
and all into one spirit were made to drink .
*
Also for the body not is one member ,
but many .
*
If should say the foot :
Because not I am a hand ,
not I am from of the body ;
not from this not is it from of the body ?
*
And if should say the ear :
Because not I am an eye ,
not I am from of the body ;
not from this not is it from of the body ?
*
If whole the body an eye ,
where the hearing ?
if whole hearing ,
where the small ?
*
Now but the God placed the members ,
one each of them in the body ,
as he would .
*
If but was the all one member ,
where the body ?
*
Now but many indeed members ,
one but body .
*
Not is able the eye to say to the hand :
Need of thee not I have ;
or again the head to the feet :
Need of you not I have .
*
But much more the seeming members of the body more feeble to be ,
necessary it is ;
*
and those we think less honorable to be of the body ,
to these honor more abundant we place around ;
and the uncomely parts of us comeliness more abundant has ;
*
the but comely parts of us ,
no need has .
But the God combined the body ,
to the part being inferior more abundant having given honor ,
*
so that not many be division in the body ,
but the same on behalf each other may be concerned the members .
*
And whether suffers one member ,
suffers with all the members ;
or is glorified one member ,
rejoices with all the members .
*
You but are a body of Anointed ,
and members from parts .
*
And these indeed placed the God in the congregation first apostles ,
second prophets ,
third teachers ,
after that powers ,
then gracious gifts of cures ,
helpers ,
directors ,
kinds of tongues .
