James 3:2
For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
James 3:3
Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.

So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
James 3:6
And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.
James 3:7
For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
James 3:8
but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
