James 3:5-9
5EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381!1
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 hellG1067.2
7ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of creatures in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 by mankindG5449G442:34
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.
