James 3:2-10

2We all stumbleG537G4417 in many waysG4183. IfG1487 anyoneG5100 is neverG3756 at faultG4417 inG1722 what he saysG3056, heG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, ableG1415 to controlG5468 his wholeG3650 bodyG4983.

When we putG906 bitsG5469 intoG1519 theG3588 mouthsG4750 ofG3588 horsesG2462 to makeG1519 themG846 obeyG3982 usG1473, we can guideG3329 theG846 wholeG3650 animalG4983. 4ConsiderG2400 shipsG4143 as wellG2532. Although they areG1510 so largeG5082 andG2532 are drivenG1643 byG5259 strongG4642 windsG417, they are steeredG3329 byG5259 a very smallG1646 rudderG4079 whereverG3699 theG3588 pilotG3588G2116 is inclinedG3730G1014.

5In the same wayG3779G2532, theG3588 tongueG1100 isG1510 a smallG3398 part of the bodyG3196, but it boasts ofG3166 great thingsG3173. ConsiderG2400 how smallG2245 a sparkG4442 setsG381 a greatG2245 forest ablazeG5208. 6TheG3588 tongueG1100 alsoG2532 is a fireG4442, aG3588 worldG2889 of wickednessG93 amongG2525G1722 theG3588 partsG3196 of theG1473 body. It pollutesG4695 theG3588 wholeG3650 personG4983, setsG5394 theG3588 courseG5164 of his life on fireG1078, andG2532 is itself set on fireG5394 byG5259 hellG1067.1

AllG3956 kindsG5449 of animalsG2342, birdsG4071, reptilesG2062, andG2532 creatures of the seaG1724 are being tamedG1150 andG2532 have been tamedG1150 byG3588 manG442G5449, 8butG1161 noG3762 manG444 canG1410 tameG1150 theG3588 tongueG1100. It is a restlessG182 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.

9WithG1722 the tongue we blessG2127 ourG3588 LordG2962 andG2532 FatherG3962, andG2532 withG1722 itG846 we curseG2672 menG444, whoG3588 have been madeG1096 inG2596 God’sG2316 likenessG3669. 10Out ofG1537 theG3588 sameG846 mouthG4750 comeG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG1473 brothersG80, thisG3778 shouldG5534 notG3756 beG1096!
