James 3:5-8

MNT(i) 5 So also the tongue is a small member and makes great boasts. Behold, how great a forest is set on fire by a little spark! 6 And the tongue is a fire; it is a very world of iniquity among our members, defiling the whole body, and setting on fire the wheel of nature, and is itself set on fire by hell. 7 For while every kind of beast and bird, and of reptiles and sea-creatures are tamable, and actually have been tamed by mankind, 8 no man can tame the tongue, restless evil that it is, full of deadly poison.
