James 3:5-8

Even
<2532>

so
<3779>

the tongue
<1100>

is
<2076> (5748)

a little
<3398>

member
<3196>_,

and
<2532>

boasteth great things
<3166> (5719)_.

Behold
<2400> (5628)_,

how great
<2245>

a matter
<5208>

a little
<3641>

fire
<4442>

kindleth
<381> (5719)_!

{a matter: or, wood}

And
<2532>

the tongue
<1100>

[is] a fire
<4442>_,

a world
<2889>

of iniquity
<93>_:

so
<3779>

is
<2525> (5743)

the tongue
<1100>

among
<1722>

our
<2257>

members
<3196>_,

that it defileth
<4695> (5723)

the whole
<3650>

body
<4983>_,

and
<2532>

setteth on fire
<5394> (5723)

the course
<5164>

of nature
<1078>_;

and
<2532>

it is set on fire
<5394> (5746)

of
<5259>

hell
<1067>_.

{course: Gr. wheel}

For
<1063>

every
<3956>

kind
<5449>

of beasts
<2342>_,

and
<5037> <2532>

of birds
<4071>_,

and
<5037>

of serpents
<2062>_,

and
<2532>

of things in the sea
<1724>_,

is tamed
<1150> (5743)_,

and
<2532>

hath been tamed
<1150> (5769)

of mankind
<5449> <442>_:

{kind: Gr. nature} {mankind: Gr. nature of man}

But
<1161>

the tongue
<1100>

can
<1410> (5736)

no
<3762>

man
<444>

tame
<1150> (5658)_;

[it is] an unruly
<183>

evil
<2556>_,

full
<3324>

of deadly
<2287>

poison
<2447>_.
