22 On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 相反,看起来不太重要的肢体事实上是不可或缺的。

23 and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty, 我们认为身体上不体面的肢体,越要加以美化;不雅观的肢体,越要精心呵护。

24 while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, 我们俊美的肢体,自然用不着装饰。但神配搭这身子,把加倍的体面给那有缺欠的肢体。

25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. 这样身体各肢体才可以彼此相顾,不会分门别类。

26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.若一个肢体受苦,所有的肢体就一同受苦。若一个肢体得荣耀,所有的肢体就一同快乐。
