The Tongue Is a Fire1 aLet not many° [of you] become° teachers°, bmy brethren°, knowing° that as such we will incur° a Istricter° judgment°. 2 For we all° astumble° in many° [ways]. bIf° anyone° does not stumble° in Iwhat° he says°, he is a cperfect° man°, able° to dbridle° the whole° body° as well°. 3 Now° aif° we put° the bits° into the horses’° mouths° so° that they will obey° us, we direct° their entire° body° as well°. 4 Look° at the ships° also°, though they are so° great° and are driven° by strong° winds°, are still directed° by a very° small° rudder° wherever° the inclination° of the pilot° desires°. 5 So° also° the tongue° is a small° part° of the body, and [yet] it aboasts° of great° things°. ¶ bSee° how° great° a forest° is set° aflame° by such° a small° fire°! 6 And athe tongue° is a fire°, the [very] world° of iniquity°; the tongue° is set° among° our members° as that which bdefiles° the entire° body°, and sets° on fire° the course° of [our] Ilife°, and is set° on fire° by IIchell°. 7 For every° Ispecies° of beasts° and birds°, of reptiles° and creatures° of the sea°, is tamed° and has been tamed° by the human° Irace°. 8 But no° one°° can° tame° the tongue°; [it is] a restless° evil° [and] full° of adeadly° poison°. 9 With it we bless° a[our] Lord° and Father°, and with it we curse° men°, bwho have been° made° in the likeness° of God°; 10 from the same° mouth° come° [both] blessing° and cursing°. My brethren°, these° things° ought° not to be this° way°. 11 Does a fountain° send° out from the same° opening° [both] Ifresh° and bitter° [water]? 12 aCan° a fig° tree°, my brethren°, produce° olives°, or° a vine° produce° figs°?
