22. But much rather, those members of the body which are thought to be weaker are necessary.
23. 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,
24. whereas our seemly members have no need. But Elohim blended together the body, having given greater respect to that member which lacks it,
25. that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same concern one for another.
26. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is esteemed, all the members rejoice with it.
27. And you are a body of Messiah, and members individually.
28. And Elohim has appointed these in the assembly: firstly emissaries, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, ministrations, kinds of tongues.
29. Are all emissaries? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?
30. Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
31. But earnestly seek the better gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
