5Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!Select James 3:5

6And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.Select James 3:6

7For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:Select James 3:7

8But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.Select James 3:8

9Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.Select James 3:9
