wbs@James:3:2 @ For in many things we all offend. If any man offendeth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

wbs@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
wbs@James:3:11 @ Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
wbs@James:3:12 @ Can the fig-tree, my brethren, bear olive-berries? or a vine, figs? so no fountain can yield both salt water and fresh.
