Let's take a look!

T.) kai (and) a (those which) dokoumen (we think) atimotera (more void of honour) einai (to be) tou (of the ) somatos (body,) toutois (these) timen (honour) perissoteran (more abundant) peritithemen (we put aboutkai (AND) ta (THE) aschemona (UNCOMELY PARTS) emon (OF US) euschemosunen (COMELINESS) perissoteran (MORE ABUNDANT) echei (HAVE).
(Lamsa) "And on those members of the body which we think to be less honorable we bestow more abundant honor; and the parts that are uncomely WE DRESS WITH GREATER CARE;"
(Murdock) "And those which we think dishonorable in the body, on them we heap more honor; and those that are uncomely, ON THEM WE PUT THE MORE DECORATION."
