James 3:6-9 And the tongue is a fire, a world of wrong the tongue proves in our bodies, soiling the whole body and setting fire to the whole round of nature, and set on fire itself by hell.

It is an irreconcilable evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless the Lord our Father, and with it we curse men made in God's likeness.
