James 3:5-9
5SoG2532 theG3588 tongueG1100 alsoG2532 isG1510 aG1510 littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth greatG3173 thingsG3173. BeholdG2400, howG3779 muchG3173 wood isG1510 kindledG381 byG2532 howG3779 smallG3398 aG1510 fireG4442!
6AndG2532 theG3588 tongueG1100 is a fireG4442: theG3588 worldG2889 ofG4983 iniquityG93 amongG1722 ourG2532 membersG3196 is theG3588 tongueG1100, whichG3588 defileth theG3588 wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth onG1722 fireG4442 theG3588 wheel ofG4983 nature, andG2532 is setG2525 onG1722 fireG4442 byG1722 hellG1067.
7ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG3956 ofG3956 beastsG2342 andG2532 birdsG4071, ofG3956 creeping thingsG3956 andG2532 thingsG3956 inG2532 theG3956 seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath beenG2532 tamedG1150 byG2532 mankind:
8butG1161 theG3588 tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; itG1161 is a restlessG182 evilG2556, itG1161 is fullG3324 ofG444 deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.
9Therewith blessG2127 weG2532 theG3588 LordG2962 andG2532 FatherG3962; andG2532 therewith curseG2672 weG2532 menG444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 theG3588 likenessG3669 ofG2316 GodG2316:
