Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not right for these things to be so.

James 3:12
Is a fig-tree able to give us olives, my brothers, or do we get figs from a vine, or sweet water from the salt sea?
-----
James 3:11
Does the fountain send from the same outlet sweet and bitter water?

James 3:6
And the tongue is a fire; it is the power of evil placed in our bodies, making all the body unclean, putting the wheel of life on fire, and getting its fire from hell.
James 3:7
For every sort of beast and bird and every living thing on earth and in the sea has been controlled by man and is under his authority;
James 3:8
But the tongue may not be controlled by man; it is an unresting evil, it is full of the poison of death.
-----
James 3:2
For we all go wrong in a number of things. If a man never makes a slip in his talk, then he is a complete man and able to keep all his body in control.
James 3:3
Now if we put bits of iron into horses' mouths so that they may be guided by us, we have complete control of their bodies.
James 3:4
And again ships, though they are so great and are moved by violent winds, are turned by a very small guiding-blade, at the impulse of the man who is using it.
James 3:5
Even so the tongue is a small part of the body, but it takes credit for great things. How much wood may be lighted by a very little fire!
-----
James 3:1
Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more hardly than others.
