Wycliffe(i)
19 That if alle weren o membre, where were the bodi?
20 But now ther ben many membris, but o bodi.
21 And the iye may not seie to the hond, Y haue no nede to thi werkis; or eft the heed to the feet, Ye ben not necessarie to me.
22 But myche more tho that ben seyn to be the lowere membris of the bodi, ben more nedeful;
23 and thilke that we gessen to be the vnworthier membris of the bodi, we yyuen more honour `to hem; and tho membris that ben vnonest, han more oneste.
24 For oure oneste membris han nede of noon; but God tempride the bodi, yyuynge more worschip to it, to whom it failide,
25 that debate be not in the bodi, but that the membris be bisi in to the same thing ech for othere.
26 And if o membre suffrith ony thing, alle membris suffren therwith; ethir if o membre ioieth, alle membris ioien togidere.
27 And ye ben the bodi of Crist, and membris of membre.
28 But God sette sum men in the chirche, fyrst apostlis, the secunde tyme prophetis, the thridde techeris, aftirward vertues, aftirward graces of heelyngis, helpyngis, gouernails, kyndis of langagis, interpretaciouns of wordis.
29 Whether alle apostlis? whethir alle prophetis? whether alle techeris? whether alle vertues?
30 whether alle men han grace of heelyngis? whether alle speken with langagis? whether alle expownen?
31 But sue ye the betere goostli yiftis. And yit Y schewe to you a more exellent weye.
