James 3:5-8

LITV(i) 5 So also the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how little a fire kindles how large a forest! 6 And the tongue is a fire, the world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body, and inflaming the course of nature, and having been inflamed by Hell. 7 For every species of beasts, both indeed of birds, of creeping things, and of sea animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by the human species; 8 but no one of men is able to tame the tongue; it is an evil that cannot be restrained, full of death-dealing poison.
