James 3:8-12
8But noG3762 oneG3762G444 canG1410 tameG1150 the tongueG1100; it is a restlessG182 evilG2556 and fullG3324 of 1deadlyG2287 poisonG2447. 9With it we blessG2127 2our LordG2962 and FatherG3962, and with it we curseG2672 menG444, 3who have beenG1096 madeG1096 in the likenessG3669 of GodG2316; 10from the sameG846 mouthG4750 comeG1831 both blessingG2129 and cursingG2671. My brethrenG80, theseG3778 thingsG3778 oughtG5534 not to be thisG3779 wayG3779. 11Does a fountainG4077 sendG1032 out from the sameG846 openingG3692 both 4freshG1099 and bitterG4089 water? 125CanG1410 a figG4808 treeG4808, my brethrenG80, produceG4160 olivesG1636, orG2228 a vineG288 produceG4160 figsG4810? NorG3777 can saltG252 waterG5204 produceG4160 6freshG1099.
