James 3

1MyG1473 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 teachersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3173 condemnationG2917.

2ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we offendG4417 allG537. IfG1487 any manG5100 offendG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, and ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG3588G4983. 3BeholdG3708, we putG906 bitsG3588G5469 inG1519 the horses’G3588G2462 mouthsG3588G4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG1473; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG3588G4983. 4BeholdG3708 alsoG2532 the shipsG3588G4143, which thoughG1510 they be so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 ofG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet are they turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whithersoeverG3699G302 the governorG3588G2116 listethG1014. 5EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG3588G1100 isG1510 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG3708, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381! 6AndG2532 the tongueG3588G1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG3588G2889 of iniquityG3588G93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG3588G1100 amongG1722 ourG1473 membersG3588G3196, that it defilethG3588G4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG3588G4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG3588G5164 of natureG3588G1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG3588G1067. 7ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of things in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 of mankindG442: 8ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447. 9TherewithG846 bless weG2127 GodG3588G2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 therewithG846 curse weG2672 menG3588G444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316. 10Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG1473 brethrenG80, these thingsG3778 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096. 11DothG3385 a fountainG3588G4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089? 12CanG1410 the fig treeG4808, myG1473 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? eitherG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 can noG3762 fountainG4077 both yieldG4160 saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099. 13

WhoG5101 is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG4771? let him shewG1166 out ofG1537 a goodG2570 conversationG391 hisG846 worksG3588G2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678. 14ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lieG5574 not againstG2596 the truthG3588G225. 15ThisG3778 wisdomG3588G4678 descendethG2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. 16ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229. 17ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that isG1510 from aboveG509 is firstG4412 pureG53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. 18AndG1161 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG3588G1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 of themG3588 that makeG4160 peaceG1515.
