⁴ For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function,^(A)

⁴ So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law^(A) through the body of Christ,^(B) that you might belong to another,^(C) to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God.

⁵ so in Christ we, though many, form one body,^(A) and each member belongs to all the others.

¹⁶ Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break^(A) a participation in the body of Christ?^(B)

²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ,^(A) and each one of you is a part of it.^(B)

¹² to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ^(A) may be built up^(B)
