mkjv@James:3:1 @ My brothers, do not be many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
mkjv@James:3:2 @ For [in] many [things] we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same [is] a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body.
mkjv@James:3:3 @ Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, so that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.
mkjv@James:3:4 @ Behold also the ships being so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small rudder, where the impulse of him steering desires.
mkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. Behold how little a fire kindles how large a forest!
mkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell.
mkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.
mkjv@James:3:8 @ But no one can tame the tongue, [it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
mkjv@James:3:9 @ By this we bless God, even [the] Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God.
mkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
mkjv@James:3:11 @ Does a fountain send forth at the same hole the sweet and the bitter?
mkjv@James:3:12 @ Can the fig tree, my brothers, bear olive berries; or a vine, figs? So no fountain [can] yield both salt water and fresh.
mkjv@James:3:13 @ Who [is] wise and knowing among you? Let him show his works by [his] good conduct with meekness of wisdom.
mkjv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and strife in your hearts, do not glory and lie against the truth.
mkjv@James:3:15 @ This is not the wisdom coming down from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish.
mkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envying and strife [are], there [is] confusion and every foul deed.
mkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first truly pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.
mkjv@James:3:18 @ And [the] fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
