1 Corinthians 12:22

The Scriptures 1998

But much rather, those members of the body which are thought to be weaker are necessary.

See the chapter Copy

In a multitude of people Is a sovereign’s splendour, But in the lack of people Is the ruin of a prince.

And the increase of the land is for all. The sovereign himself is served from the field.

And an eye is unable to say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” or again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”

And to those of the body which we think to be less respected, these we present greater respect. And our unseemly members have greater seemliness,

you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks shall be given by many on our behalf for the favour bestowed upon us through many.
