James 3:2-6

James 3:2-6

[2] For  in many things  we offend  all.  offend  not  in  word,  the same  is a perfect  man,  and able  also  to bridle  the whole  body.  [3] we put  bits  in  the horses'  mouths,  they  may obey  and  we turn about  their  whole  body.  [4] Behold  also  the ships,  so great,  and  are driven  of  fierce  winds,  yet are they turned about  with  a very small  helm,  whithersoever  the governor  listeth.  [5] Even  so  the tongue  a little  member,  and  boasteth great things.  Behold,  how great  a matter  fire  kindleth!  [6] And  the tongue  is a fire,  a world  of iniquity:  is  the tongue  among  members,  that it defileth  the whole  body,  and  setteth on fire  the course  of nature;  and  it is set on fire  of  hell.
