WNT(i)
6 And the tongue is a fire. That world of iniquity, the tongue, is placed within us spotting and soiling our whole nature, and setting the whole round of our lives on fire, being itself set on fire by Gehenna.
7 For brute nature under all its forms--beasts and birds, reptiles and fishes--can be subjected and kept in subjection by human nature.
8 But the tongue no man or woman is able to tame. It is an ever-busy mischief, and is full of deadly poison.
9 With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in God's likeness.
