James 3:7-12

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.
