12:13 我們不拘是猶太人,是希臘人,是為奴的,是自主的,都從一位聖靈受洗,成了一個身體,飲於一位聖靈。
12:14 身子原不是一個肢體,乃是許多肢體。
12:15 設若腳說:我不是手,所以不屬乎身子;它不能因此就不屬乎身子。
12:16 設若耳說:我不是眼,所以不屬乎身子;它也不能因此就不屬乎身子。
12:17 若全身是眼,從那裡聽聲呢?若全身是耳,從那裡聞味呢?
12:18 但如今,神隨自己的意思把肢體俱各安排在身上了。
12:19 若都是一個肢體,身子在那裡呢?
12:20 但如今肢體是多的,身子卻是一個。
12:21 眼不能對手說:我用不著你;頭也不能對腳說:我用不著你。

一個身體有許多肢體
12:12 基督就像一個身體,有許多肢體;雖然身體有許多肢體,到底還是一個身體。
12:13 同樣,我們無論是猶太人或希臘人,作奴隸的或自由的,都從同一位聖靈受洗,成了一個身體,而且共享這一位聖靈。
12:14 身體不是只有一個肢體,而是由許多肢體構成的。
12:15 如果腳說:「我不是手,所以不屬於身體」,它不能因此就不是身體的一部分。
12:16 如果耳朵說:「我不是眼睛,所以不屬於身體」,它也不能因此就不是身體的一部分。
12:17 如果全身是眼睛,怎麼能聽呢?如果全身是耳朵,怎麼能嗅呢?
12:18 然而,上帝按照自己的旨意把那些不同的肢體都安置在人的身體上。
12:19 如果全身體只有一個肢體,怎麼能算是身體呢?
12:20 其實,肢體有許多,身體卻只是一個。
12:21 所以,眼睛不能對手說:「我不需要你!」頭也不能對腳說:「我用不著你!」
思想問題:我和教會的肢體有同為一體的感受嗎?我是否看輕或歧視團契或教會裡的哪一位肢體?

RSV
12:12 For just as the body is one and has
many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one
body, so it is with Christ.
12:13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized
into one body -- Jews or Greeks, slaves or free -- and all were made to
drink of one Spirit.
12:14 For the body does not consist of one member but of many.
12:15 If the foot should say, "Because I am
not a hand, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any
less a part of the body.
12:16 And if the ear should say, "Because I
am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any
less a part of the body.
12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?
12:18 But as it is, God arranged the organs in the body, each one of them, as he chose.
12:19 If all were a single organ, where would the body be?
12:20 As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.
12:21 The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."
