James 3:5-9

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>_.
Therewith
<1722> <846>
bless we
<2127> (5719)
God
<2316>_,
even
<2532>
the Father
<3962>_;
and
<2532>
therewith
<1722> <846>
curse we
<2672> (5736)
men
<444>_,
which
<3588>
are made
<1096> (5756)
after
<2596>
the similitude
<3669>
of God
<2316>_.
