6 (And the tongue a fire, a world of iniquity: so the tongue is placed in our members, defiling the whole body, and burning the wheel of creation; and burned by hell. 7 For every nature of beasts, and also of birds, of creeping things, and also of things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by the nature of man: 8 And the tongue none of men can tame; an ungovernable evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we praise the God and Father; and with it we curse men, those made according to the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same month comes forth blessing and cursing. There is no need, my brethren, for these things so to be. James 3:6-10, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
