NET Bible
"But as a matter of fact, God has placed each of the members in the body just as he decided."
— 1 Corinthians 12:18, NET Bible
“But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.”
“But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him. ”
“But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.”
“But now God hath set the members, every one of them, in the body as it hath pleased him.”
“But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.”
“But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.”
If the foot says,“Since I am not a hand, I am not part of the body,” it does not lose its membership in the body because of that.
And if the ear says,“Since I am not an eye, I am not part of the body,” it does not lose its membership in the body because of that.
If the whole body were an eye, what part would do the hearing? If the whole were an ear, what part would exercise the sense of smell?
But as a matter of fact, God has placed each of the members in the body just as he decided.
If they were all the same member, where would the body be?
So now there are many members, but one body.
The eye cannot say to the hand,“I do not need you,” nor in turn can the head say to the foot,“I do not need you.”
