1 Corinthians 12:23

and those members of the body, which we think to be lets honourable, upon these we bestow(literally, these we surround with) more abundant honour i.e. by our admission that they are necessary to us. "The meanest trades are those with which we can least dispense. A nation may exist without an astronomer or philosopher, but the day-labourer is essential to the existence of man." Robertson.

and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness Those parts which we are accustomed, from their -uncomeliness" (rather, perhaps, unseemliness, since the word here used conveys an idea of shame), to conceal by clothing, do nevertheless perform nearly all the most important and necessary functions of the body.
