ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૧૨:૧૭
જો આખું શરીર આંખ હોત તો કાન ક્યાં હોત? જો આખું શરીર કાન હોત તો જ્ઞાનેન્દ્રિય ક્યાં હોત?
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों १२:१७
यदि सारी देह आँख ही होती तो सुनना कहाँ से होता? यदि सारी देह कान ही होती तो सूँघना कहाँ होता?

In context

15If the foot would say, “Because I’m not the hand, I’m not part of the body,” it is not therefore not part of the body.

16If the ear would say, “Because I’m not the eye, I’m not part of the body,” it’s not therefore not part of the body.

17If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?

18But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

19If they were all one member, where would the body be?
