1 Corinthians 12:16-18

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

¹⁶ And if the ear should say “Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body”, it is not for this reason not a part of the body. ¹⁷ If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were an ear, where would the smelling be? ¹⁸ But now^[a], God placed the body-parts— each one of them— in the body, just as He wanted.
