20. As it is, there are many parts but one body.
21. So then, the eye cannot say to the hand, “I don't need you!” Nor can the head say to the feet, “Well, I don't need you!”
22. On the contrary, we cannot do without the parts of the body that seem to be weaker;
23. and those parts that we think aren't worth very much are the ones which we treat with greater care; while the parts of the body which don't look very nice are treated with special modesty,
24. which the more beautiful parts do not need. God himself has put the body together in such a way as to give greater honour to those parts that need it.
