What you sow is not the body that will be
Paul uses the metaphor of the seed again to say that God will resurrect the dead body of the believer, but that body will not appear as it was. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
What you sow
Paul is speaking to the Corinthians as if they were one person, so the word "you" here is singular. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you)
God will give it a body as he chooses
"God will decide what kind of body it will have"
flesh
In the context of animals, "flesh" may be translated as "body," "skin," or "meat."
