James 3:1–12 · BSB
3:1 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.
3:2 We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to control his whole body.
3:3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can guide the whole animal.
3:4 Consider ships as well. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot is inclined.
3:5 In the same way, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it boasts of great things. Consider how small a spark sets a great forest ablaze.
3:6 The tongue also is a fire, a world of wickedness among the parts of the body. It pollutes the whole person, sets the course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
3:7 All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man,
3:8 but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
3:9 With the tongue we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness.
3:10 Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be!
3:11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?
3:12 My brothers, can a fig tree grow olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.
