"But instead, there are many parts, indeed, yet one body. "
— 1 Corinthians 12:20, Catholic Public Domain Version
“But now are they many members, yet but one body.”
“But now they are many members, but one body. ”
“But now they are many members, but one body.”
“So now there are many members, but one body.”
“But now there are many members indeed, yet one body.”
“But now they are all different parts, but one body.”
“But now are they many members, yet but one body.”
If the whole body were the eye, how would it hear? If the whole were hearing, how would it smell?
But instead, God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body, just as it has pleased him.
So if they were all one part, how would it be a body?
But instead, there are many parts, indeed, yet one body.
And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need for your works.” And again, the head cannot say to the feet, “You are of no use to me.”
In fact, so much more necessary are those parts of the body which seem to be weaker.
And though we consider certain parts of the body to be less noble, we surround these with more abundant dignity, and so, those parts which are less presentable end up with more abundant respect.
