James 3

1MyG3450 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 teachersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3187 judgmentG2917.1 2ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we allG537 offendG4417. If any manG1536 stumbleG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983. 3BeholdG2400, we putG906 bitsG5469 inG1519 the horsesG2462’ mouthsG4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG2254; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG4983. 4BeholdG2400 alsoG2532 the shipsG4143, which though they are so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 byG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet they are turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whereverG3699G302 the pilotG2116 willethG3730G1014. 5EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381!2 6AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 fromG5259 hellG1067.3 7ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of creatures in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 by mankindG5449G442:45 8ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447. 9With itG1722G846 we blessG2127 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 with itG1722G846 we curseG2672 menG444, whoG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316. 10Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG3450 brethrenG80, these thingsG5023 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096. 11DothG3385 a fountainG4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089?6 12CanG3361G1410 the fig treeG4808, myG3450 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? orG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 noG3762 fountainG4077 can yieldG4160 both saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099.

13WhoG5101is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG5213? let him showG1166 byG1537 a goodG2570 behaviourG391 hisG846 worksG2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678. 14ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lie notG5574 againstG2596 the truthG225. 15ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, demonicG1141.7 16ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229.8 17ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and reasonableG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505.9 18AndG1161 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 by them that makeG4160 peaceG1515.
