1 Corinthians 12:22-26 Unity and Diversity in the Body of Christ

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,

24 while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has combined the members of the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
