جِسْم in a sentence

From a fully vowelled text

فَلِلْوَقْتِ جَفَّ يَنْبُوعُ دَمِهَا، وَعَلِمَتْ فِي جِسْمِهَا أَنَّهَا قَدْ بَرِئَتْ مِنَ الدَّاءِ.And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.Mark 5:29, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
هُوَذَا الْخَيْلُ، نَضَعُ اللُّجُمَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهَا لِكَيْ تُطَاوِعَنَا، فَنُدِيرَ جِسْمَهَا كُلَّهُ.Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.James 3:3, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَكُلُّ جِسْمِهَا وَظُهُورِهَا وَأَيْدِيهَا وَأَجْنِحَتِهَا وَالْبَكَرَاتِ مَلآنَةٌ عُيُونًا حَوَالَيْهَا لِبَكَرَاتِهَا الأَرْبَعِ.And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.Ezekiel 10:12, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
