James 3:1-10 Let there not be many teachers, my brethren! knowing that we shall receive greater judgment.

ABP_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G3361 [²not G4183 ⁴many G1320 ⁵teachers G1096 ¹Let there ³be], G80 my brethren! G1473 G1492 knowing G3754 that G3173 [²greater G2917 ³judgment G2983 ¹we shall receive].

2 G4183 For many times G1063 G4417 we are at fault G537 all together. G1536 If any G1722 in G3056 word G3756 is not G4417 at fault, G3778 this one G5046 is a perfect G435 man, G1415 able G5468 to bridle G2532 even G3650 his entire G3588 G4983 body.

3 G2396 See! G3588 [⁷of the G2462 ⁸horses G3588 ²the G5469 ³bits G1519 ⁴into G3588 ⁵the G4750 ⁶mouths G906 ¹we put], G4314 for G3588 G3982 them to comply G1473 G1473 to us, G2532 and G3650 [³entire G3588 G4983 ⁴body G1473 ²their G3329 ¹we lead around].

4 G2400 Behold, G2532 also G3588 the G4143 boats G5082 being so great, G1510.6 G2532 and G5259 by G4642 harsh G417 winds G1643 being driven, G3329 are led around G5259 by G1646 the least size G4079 rudder, G3699 where G302 even G3588 the G3730 thrust G3588 of the one G2116 straightening G1014 wills it to go .

5 G3779 So G2532 also G3588 the G1100 tongue G3397 [²a small G3196 ³member G1510.2.3 ¹is], G2532 and G3166 brags. G2400 Behold, G3641 a little G4442 fire G2245 how much G5208 material G381 it lights;

6 G2532 And G3588 the G1100 tongue G4442 is fire, G3588 the G2889 world G3588 G93 of unrighteousness. G3779 Thus G3588 the G1100 tongue G2525 is placed G1722 among G3588 G3196 our members, G1473 G3588 G4696 staining G3650 the entire G3588 G4983 body, G2532 and G5394 blazing G3588 the G5164 whirlwind G3588 G1078 of creation, G2532 and G5394 being set ablaze G5259 by G3588 G1067 Gehenna.

7 G3956 For every G1063 G5449 species of nature, G2342 both of wild beasts G5037 G2532 and G4071 of birds, G2062 both of reptiles G5037 G2532 and G1724 marine life, G1150 is tamed G2532 and G1150 has been tamed G3588 by the G5449 [²nature G3588 G442 ¹human].

8 G3588 But the G1161 G1100 tongue G3762 no one G1410 is able G444 of men G1150 to tame; G183 it is an unrestrained G2556 evil, G3324 full G2447 of poison G2287 causing death.

9 G1722 By G1473 it G2127 we bless G3588 G2316 God G2532 and G3962 father, G2532 and G1722 by G1473 it G2672 we curse G3588 G444 men, G3588 the ones G2596 [²according to G3669 ³ the likeness G2316 ⁴of God G1096 ¹ who are born].

10 G1537 From out of G3588 the G1473 same G4750 mouth G1831 comes forth G2129 blessing G2532 and G2671 curse. G3756 It does not G5534 behoove us, G80 my brethren, G1473 G3778 for these things G3779 so G1096 to be.

1 G3450 My G80 brethren, G1096 [G5737] be G3361 not G4183 many G1320 teachers, G1492 [G5761] knowing G3754 that G2983 [G5695] we shall receive G3187 the greater G2917 judgment.

2 G1063 For G4183 in many things G537 we all G4417 [G5719] stumble. G1536 If any man G4417 [G5719] stumble G3756 not G1722 in G3056 word, G3778 the same G5046 is a perfect G435 man, G1415 able G2532 also G5468 [G5658] to bridle G3650 the whole G4983 body.

3 G2400 [G5628] Behold, G906 [G5719] we put G5469 bits G1519 in G2462 the horses' G4750 mouths, G4314 that G846 they G3982 [G5745] may obey G2254 us; G2532 and G3329 [G5719] we turn about G846 their G3650 whole G4983 body.

4 G2400 [G5628] Behold G2532 also G4143 the ships, G5607 [G5752] which though they are G5082 so great, G2532 and G1643 [G5746] are driven G5259 by G4642 hard G417 winds, G3329 [G5743] yet they are turned about G5259 by G1646 a very small G4079 helm, G3699 G302 wherever G2116 [G5723] the pilot G3730 G1014 [G5741] willeth.

5 G2532 Even G3779 so G1100 the tongue G2076 [G5748] is G3398 a little G3196 member, G2532 and G3166 [G5719] boasteth great things. G2400 [G5628] Behold, G2245 how great G5208 a forest G3641 a little G4442 fire G381 [G5719] kindleth!

6 G2532 And G3588 the G1100 tongue G4442 is a fire, G3588 the G2889 world G3588 of the G93 injustice: G3779 so G2525 [G5743] is G3588 the G1100 tongue G1722 among G2257 our G3196 members, G3588 G4695 [G5723] spotting G3588 the G3650 whole G4983 body, G2532 and G5394 [G5723] setting on fire G3588 the G5164 wheel G3588 G1078 of nature; G2532 and G5394 [G5746] being set on fire G5259 by G3588 the G1067 Valley of the Son of Hinnom.

7 G1063 For G3956 every G5449 nature G2342 of wild beasts, G5037 G2532 and G4071 of birds, G5037 and G2062 of serpents, G2532 and G1724 of creatures in the sea, G1150 [G5743] is tamed, G2532 and G1150 [G5769] hath been tamed G3588 by the G5449 nature G442 of man:

8 G1161 But G1100 the tongue G1410 [G5736] can G3762 no G444 man G1150 [G5658] tame; G183 it is an unruly G2556 bad, G3324 full G2287 of deadly G2447 poison.

9 G1722 G846 With it G2127 [G5719] we bless G2316 God, G2532 even G3962 the Father; G2532 and G1722 G846 with it G2672 [G5736] we curse G444 men, G3588 who G1096 [G5756] are made G2596 after G3669 the similitude G2316 of God.

10 G1537 Out of G846 the same G4750 mouth G1831 [G5736] proceedeth G2129 blessing G2532 and G2671 cursing. G3450 My G80 brethren, G5023 these things G5534 [G5724] ought G3756 not G3779 so G1096 [G5738] to be.

Lingua constituitur in membris nostris, quæ maculat totum corpus, et inflammat rotam nativitatis nostræ inflammata a gehenna. ⁷ Omnis enim natura bestiarum, et volucrum, et serpentium, et ceterorum domantur, et domita sunt a natura humana: ⁸ linguam autem nullus hominum domare potest: inquietum malum, plena veneno mortifero. ⁹ In ipsa benedicimus Deum et Patrem: et in ipsa maledicimus homines, qui ad similitudinem Dei facti sunt. ¹⁰ Ex ipso ore procedit benedictio et maledictio. Non oportet, fratres mei, hæc ita fieri.

5 G2532 Even G3779 so G1100 the tongue G2076 is [G5748] G3398 a little G3196 member G2532 , and G3166 boasteth great things [G5719] G2400 . Behold [G5628] G2245 , how great G5208 a matter G3641 a little G4442 fire G381 kindleth [G5719] !

6 G2532 And G1100 the tongue G4442 is a fire G2889 , a world G93 of iniquity G3779 : so G2525 is [G5743] G1100 the tongue G1722 among G2257 our G3196 members G4695 , that it defileth [G5723] G3650 the whole G4983 body G2532 , and G5394 setteth on fire [G5723] G5164 the course G1078 of nature G2532 ; and G5394 it is set on fire [G5746] G5259 of G1067 hell.

7 G1063 For G3956 every G5449 kind G2342 of beasts G5037 , and G2532 G4071 of birds G5037 , and G2062 of serpents G2532 , and G1724 of things in the sea G1150 , is tamed [G5743] G2532 , and G1150 hath been tamed [G5769] G5449 of mankind G442 :

8 G1161 But G1100 the tongue G1410 can [G5736] G3762 no G444 man G1150 tame [G5658] G183 ; it is an unruly G2556 evil G3324 , full G2287 of deadly G2447 poison.

9 G1722 Therewith G846 G2127 bless we [G5719] G2316 God G2532 , even G3962 the Father G2532 ; and G1722 therewith G846 G2672 curse we [G5736] G444 men G3588 , which G1096 are made [G5756] G2596 after G3669 the similitude G2316 of God.

10 G1537 Out of G846 the same G4750 mouth G1831 proceedeth [G5736] G2129 blessing G2532 and G2671 cursing G3450 . My G80 brethren G5023 , these things G5534 ought [G5724] G3756 not G3779 so G1096 to be [G5738] .

Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, don't affect many of you to be doctors, considering, that those of us who are such, shall be tried with the greater severity. ² for we are all liable to frequent mistakes. he that does not give too great a loose to his tongue, is an accomplish'd person and fit to moderate the whole church. ³ you see how manageable horses are made by the application of a bit, which makes them take what motion we please. ⁴ a ship too of the greatest burthen, tho' the wind bears hard, by means of an inconsiderable helm, veers about as the hand of the pilot directs her. ⁵ so the tongue is but a small part of the body, yet how grand are its pretensions. a spark of fire! what quantities of timber will it blow into a flame? ⁶ the tongue is a brand that sets the world in a combustion: it is but one of the numerous organs of the body, yet it can blast whole assemblies: tipp'd with infernal sulphur it sets the whole train of life in a blaze. ⁷ creatures of every kind, beasts, birds, reptiles, and sea-monsters, are frequently tamed by human industry. ⁸ but who could ever tame the tongue? arm'd with deadly poison, the mischief scorns restraint. ⁹ By that we give praises to God the father: and that pronounces curses even against men, who are form'd after the divine resemblance. ¹⁰ from the same mouth shall blessing and cursing proceed? this ought not to be practis'd, my brethren;

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation, ² For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same [is] a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits in the horses mouth, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever, the governor listeth. ⁵ In like manner also the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold how little a fire how great a matter it kindleth. ⁶ And the tongue [is] a fire; a world of iniquity, [so] is the tongue amongst our members, It defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of gehenna. ⁷ For every kind of beasts, and of birds, of serpents, and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: ⁸ But the tongue can no man tame; an unquiet evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the similitude of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My Brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Wesley⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive greater condemnation. ² For in many things we offend all. If any one offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold we put bits into the horses mouths, that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, tho' they are so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet are turned about by a very small helm, whithersoever the pilot listeth. ⁵ So the tongue also is a little member, yet boasteth great things. Behold how much matter a little fire kindleth. ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: it is the tongue among the members which defileth the whole body and setteth on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire of hell. ⁷ For every kind both of wild beasts and of birds, both of reptiles and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind. ⁸ But the tongue can no man tame: it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we God the Father, and therewith curse we man, made after the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Worsley⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we who are such shall pass a stricter trial than others: for in many things we all offend; ² and if any offend not in word, he is a compleat man, able to manage also the whole body. ³ Behold we put bridles into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body as we please. ⁴ Behold also the ships which are of so great bulk, and even when they are driven by hard winds, yet are turned about by a very small helm which way soever the pilot pleaseth. ⁵ So the tongue is a small part of the body, yet boasteth great things. Behold how much fuel a little fire kindleth! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our several parts, defiling the whole body, inflaming the course of nature, and is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of wild beasts, and birds, and reptiles, and fishes, is tamed and hath been tamed by mankind: ⁸ but the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless God even the Father; and with it we curse men, who are made after the likeness of God: ¹⁰ out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. These things, my brethren, ought not so to be.

Haweis⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ MY brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive a severer judgment. ² For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, he is a perfect man, and capable of reining in the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits into the horses' mouths, that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, though so great, and driven by tempestuous winds, are turned about by the smallest rudder, whithersoever the inclination of the pilot pleaseth. ⁵ So also the tongue is a little member, and proudly vaunts. Behold how great a pile of wood, a little fire kindleth! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: in such manner is the tongue placed among our members, that it defileth all the body, and setteth on fire the circle of nature; and is set on fire of hell. ⁷ For every species of wild beasts, and also of birds, of reptiles, and even of fishes, is tamed, and hath also been tamed by human ingenuity: ⁸ but the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless God even the Farther; and with the same we curse men, though after the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth goeth forth blessing and cursing. These things, my brethren, ought not to be thus.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be not, my brethren, many teachers; as you know that we shall receive a severer sentence; ² for in many instances we all offend. If any one offend not in discourse he is a perfect man, and able to bridle in the whole body. ³ Behold we put bits in the mouths of horses to make them obey us, and we manage their whole body. ⁴ Behold ships also, how large soever they be, though driven by hard gales are managed by a very small helm, and kept to the course which the pilot in tendeth. ⁵ So also the tongue is a very small member, yet it boasteth great things. See what a great pile of wood a little fire kindleth to a flame! ⁶ Now, the tongue is a fire, the leader of iniquity; the tongue is set among the members, staining the whole body, and setting the wheel of nature in a blaze, when it is itself set in a blaze by hell. ⁷ For all kinds of beasts, and birds, and reptiles, and fishes, are subdued and have been subdued by man; ⁸ But the tongue of man none can subdue. It is an ungovernable monster: it is full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless our God and father; and with it we curse men, who are made after the image of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. These things, my brethren, ought not to be so.

Webster⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ² For in many things we all offend. If any man offendeth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits in the mouths of horses, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which though they are so great, and are driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small helm, withersoever the governor willeth. ⁵ Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire from hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of animals in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind: ⁸ But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With this we bless God, even the Father; and with this we curse men, who are made after the similitude of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Webster_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G3450 My G80 brethren G1096 [G5737] , be G3361 not G4183 many G1320 teachers G1492 [G5761] , knowing G3754 that G2983 [G5695] we shall receive G3187 the greater G2917 judgment.

2 G1063 For G4183 in many things G537 we all G4417 [G5719] offend G1536 . If any man G4417 [G5719] stumble G3756 not G1722 in G3056 word G3778 , the same G5046 is a perfect G435 man G1415 , able G2532 also G5468 [G5658] to bridle G3650 the whole G4983 body.

3 G2400 [G5628] Behold G906 [G5719] , we put G5469 bits G1519 in G2462 the horses G4750 ' mouths G4314 , that G846 they G3982 [G5745] may obey G2254 us G2532 ; and G3329 [G5719] we turn about G846 their G3650 whole G4983 body.

4 G2400 [G5628] Behold G2532 also G4143 the ships G5607 [G5752] , which though they are G5082 so great G2532 , and G1643 [G5746] are driven G5259 by G4642 fierce G417 winds G3329 [G5743] , yet they are turned about G5259 with G1646 a very small G4079 helm G3699 G302 , wherever G2116 [G5723] the pilot G3730 G1014 [G5741] willeth.

5 G2532 Even G3779 so G1100 the tongue G2076 [G5748] is G3398 a little G3196 member G2532 , and G3166 [G5719] boasteth great things G2400 [G5628] . Behold G2245 , how great G5208 a matter G3641 a little G4442 fire G381 [G5719] kindleth!

6 G2532 And G1100 the tongue G4442 is a fire G2889 , a world G93 of iniquity G3779 : so G2525 [G5743] is G1100 the tongue G1722 among G2257 our G3196 members G4695 [G5723] , that it defileth G3650 the whole G4983 body G2532 , and G5394 [G5723] setteth on fire G5164 the course G1078 of nature G2532 ; and G5394 [G5746] it is set on fire G5259 from G1067 hell.

7 G1063 For G3956 every G5449 kind G2342 of beasts G5037 G2532 , and G4071 of birds G5037 , and G2062 of serpents G2532 , and G1724 of creatures in the sea G1150 [G5743] , is tamed G2532 , and G1150 [G5769] hath been tamed G5449 G442 by mankind:

8 G1161 But G1100 the tongue G1410 [G5736] can G3762 no G444 man G1150 [G5658] tame G183 ; it is an unruly G2556 evil G3324 , full G2287 of deadly G2447 poison.

9 G1722 G846 With it G2127 [G5719] we bless G2316 God G2532 , even G3962 the Father G2532 ; and G1722 G846 with it G2672 [G5736] we curse G444 men G3588 , who G1096 [G5756] are made G2596 after G3669 the similitude G2316 of God.

10 G1537 Out of G846 the same G4750 mouth G1831 [G5736] proceedeth G2129 blessing G2532 and G2671 cursing G3450 . My G80 brethren G5023 , these things G5534 [G5724] ought G3756 not G3779 so G1096 [G5738] to be.

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Do not become many teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive a severe sentence. ² For in many things we all offend. If any one offend not in the word, he is a perfect man, able to rule, also, the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits into the mouths of horses, to make them obedient to us, and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold, also, the ships, which, though they be so great, and are driven by fierce winds, are turned about by a very small helm, whithersoever the power of the pilot determines: ⁵ so, also, the tongue is a little member, yet it works mightily. Behold, how much wood a little fire kindles! ⁶ Now the tongue is a fire-a world of iniquity; the tongue is so placed among our members, that it defiles the whole body, and sets the wheel of nature in a blaze, and is set on fire from hell. ⁷ Now every species of wild beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of sea monsters, is subdued, and has been subdued by man: ⁸ but the tongue of men, no one can subdue; it is an unruly evil thing, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless God, even the Father; and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceed a blessing and a curse! My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ LET there not be many teachers among you, my brethren, but know that a greater condemnation we incur. ² For (in) many we all offend. Every one who in word offendeth not, this is a perfect man, who is able to make subject also all his body. ³ For, behold, bridles into the mouth of horses we throw that we may make them submissive to us, and their whole body we turn. ⁴ Also the mighty ships, while the furious winds drive them, by a little wood are turned about to the region which the will of him who guideth doth contemplate. ⁵ So also the tongue is a small member, and uplifteth itself. A little fire also burneth many forests; [Obee sagiyee mauqdo.] ⁶ and the tongue is a fire, a world of sin, like a forest is the tongue itself among our members; it defileth all of our body, and burneth the course of our generations which run (forward) as a wheel, and kindleth also itself with fire. ⁷ For every nature of animals, and of birds, and reptiles of the sea, and of the dry land, have been subjected to the human nature; ⁸ but the tongue no one can subdue; this is an evil not ordered, (and) full of the poison of death. ⁹ For by it we bless the Lord and the Father, and by it we curse men who in the likeness of Aloha were made; ¹⁰ and from the same mouth go forth curses and blessings. My brethren, it is not fit that these should so be done.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Let there not be many teachers among you, my brethren; but know ye, that we are obnoxious to, a severer judgment. ² For we all offend in many things. Whoever offendeth not in discourse, is a perfect man, who can also keep his whole body in subjection. ³ Behold, we put bridles into the mouth of horses, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Huge ships also, when strong winds drive them, are turned about by a small timber, to what place the pleasure of the pilot looketh. ⁵ So likewise the tongue is a small member, and it exalteth itself. Also a little fire inflameth large forests. ⁶ Now the tongue is a fire, and the world of sin is like a forest. And this tongue, which is one among our members, marreth our whole body; and it inflameth the series of our generations that roll on like a wheel; and it is itself on fire. ⁷ For all natures of beasts and birds and reptiles, of the sea or land, are subjugated by the nature of man. ⁸ But the tongue hath no one been able to tame: it is an evil thing, not coercible, and full of deadly poison. ⁹ For with it, we bless the Lord and Father; and with it we curse men, who were made in the image of God: ¹⁰ and from the same mouth, proceed curses and blessings. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

Sawyer⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ^(2:1) BE not many of you teachers, my brothers, knowing that we shall receive a severer judgment. ² For in many things we all offend; if one offends not in word he is a perfect man, able to keep in subjection also the whole body. ³ But we put bits into the mouths of horses that they may obey us, and direct their whole body; ⁴ behold also the ships, though of so great size and driven by powerful winds, are directed by a very small helm wherever the will of the pilot chooses; ⁵ so also the tongue is a small member and boasts of great things. Behold, how much wood a little fire kindles! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the tongue is made a world of wickedness among our members, it defiles the whole body and sets on fire the course of nature and is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts, and birds, and reptiles, and fishes, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race, ⁸ but the tongue can no man tame; it is a disorderly evil, full of a deadly poison. ⁹ With it bless we the Lord and Father, and with it curse we men made in the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceeds a blessing and a curse. My brothers, these things ought not so to be.

Diaglott⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many teachers become you, brethren of me, knowing, that greater condemnation we shall receive. ² Many for we stumble all; if any one in word not stumbles, this a perfect man, able to bridle and whole the body. ³ Lo, of the horses the bits into the mouths we put in order that to make obedient them to us, and whole the body of them we turn about. ⁴ Lo, also the ships, so great being, and by violent winds being driven, are turned about by a very small helm, wherever the will of the one steering pleases. ⁵ Thus also the tongue a little member is, and greatly boasts. Lo, a little fire how great a mass of fuel kindles. ⁶ And the tongue of fire, the world of the wickedness; thus the tongue is placed among the members of us, that spotting whole the body, and setting on fire the wheel of the nature, and being set on fire by the gehenna. ⁷ Every for species of wild beasts both and of birds, of reptiles both and of things in the sea, is subdued and has been subdued by the nature by that belonging to man; ⁸ the but tongue no one is able of men to subdue; and unruly evil, full of poison death-producing. ⁹ By her we bless the God and Father, and by her we curse the men those according to a likeness of God having been made; ¹⁰ out of the same mouth goes forth blessing and cursing. Not ought, brethren of me, these things so to be.

ABU⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ MY brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive greater condemnation. ² For in many things we all offend. If any one offends not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body. ³ Now if we put the bits into the horses' mouths, that they may obey us, we turn about also their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, though they are so great, and driven by fierce winds, are turned about by a very small helm, whithersoever the steersman may desire. ⁵ So also the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how great a forest a little fire kindles! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, that world of iniquity! The tongue among our members is that which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of life, and is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every nature of beasts and birds, of reptiles and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed, by the nature of man. ⁸ But the tongue no man can tame; a restless evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith we bless the Lord and Father; and therewith we curse men, who have been made after the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ² For in many things we all offend. If any one offends not in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits into horses mouths that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which are very great, and are driven by violent winds; yet they are turned about by a very small helm, to whatever point the will of him that directs it may determine. ⁵ So, also, the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how great a forest does a little fire set in a blaze. ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the world of iniquity. So is the tongue placed among our members, defiling the whole body, setting on fire the course of life, and being set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts and of birds, of creeping things and of things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by man: ⁸ but the tongue no man can tame; it is an unruly evil; it is full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless God, even the Father: and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth come forth blessing and cursing. These things, my brethren, ought not so to be.

Noyes⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ² For in many things we all offend. If any one offend not in speech, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also. ³ For when we put the bits into the horses mouths, that they may obey us, we turn about also their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which, though they are so great, and driven by fierce winds, are yet turned about with a very small rudder, whithersoever the steersman chooseth. ⁵ So also the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a forest a little fire kindleth! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity! The tongue among our members is that which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of life, and is itself set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts and of birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed and hath been tamed by mankind; ⁸ but the tongue can no man tame; it is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we the Lord and Father, and therewith curse we men, who have been made after the likeness of God; ¹⁰ out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

YLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Many teachers become not, my brethren, having known that greater judgment we shall receive, ² for we all make many stumbles; if any one in word doth not stumble, this one is a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body; ³ lo, the bits we put into the mouths of the horses for their obeying us, and their whole body we turn about; ⁴ lo, also the ships, being so great, and by fierce winds being driven, are led about by a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse of the helmsman doth counsel, ⁵ so also the tongue is a little member, and doth boast greatly; lo, a little fire how much wood it doth kindle! ⁶ and the tongue is a fire, the world of the unrighteousness, so the tongue is set in our members, which is spotting our whole body, and is setting on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by the gehenna. ⁷ For every nature, both of beasts and of fowls, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued, and hath been subdued, by the human nature, ⁸ and the tongue no one of men is able to subdue, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison, ⁹ with it we do bless the God and Father, and with it we do curse the men made according to the similitude of God; ¹⁰ out of the same mouth doth come forth blessing and cursing; it doth not need, my brethren, these things so to happen;

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be ye not many teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive the greater judgment. ² For in many things we all stumble. If any stumble not in word, this a perfect man, able to govern by a bridle also the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they should yield to us; and we lead their whole body. ⁴ Behold also ships, being so great, and driven by hard winds, are led by the smallest rudder, wherever the desire of him steering should will. ⁵ So also the tongue is a small member, and vaunts itself. Behold, how great a wood a little fire inflames 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.

Darby⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be not many teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive greater judgment. ² For we all often offend. If any one offend not in word, *he* [is] a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body too. ³ Behold, we put the bits in the mouths of the horses, that they may obey us, and we turn round their whole bodies. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which are so great, and driven by violent winds, are turned about by a very small rudder, wherever the pleasure of the helmsman will. ⁵ Thus also the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. See how little a fire, how large a wood it kindles! ⁶ and the tongue [is] fire, the world of unrighteousness; the tongue is set in our members, the defiler of the whole body, and which sets fire to the course of nature, and is set on fire of hell. ⁷ For every species both of beasts and of birds, both of creeping things and of sea animals, is tamed and has been tamed by the human species; ⁸ but the tongue can no one among men tame; [it is] an unsettled evil, full of death-bringing poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we the Lord and Father, and therewith curse we men made after [the] likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth goes forth blessing and cursing. It is not right, my brethren, that these things should be thus.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be not many teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment. ² For in many things we all stumble.

Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts and birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind: ⁸ but the tongue can no man tame; [it is] a restless evil, [it is] full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the likeness of God: ¹⁰ out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing.

1 G1096 Be G3361 not G4183 many G1320 of you teachers, G3450 my G80 brethren, G1492 knowing G3754 that G2983 we shall receive G3173 heavier G2917 judgment.

2 G1063 For G4183 in many things G537 we all G4417 stumble. G1487 If G5100 any G4417 stumbleth G3756 not G1722 in G3056 word, G3778 the same G5046 is a perfect G435 man, G1415 able G5468 to bridle G3650 the whole G4983 body G2532 also.

3 G2400 Now G906 if we put G2462 the horses' G5469 bridles G1519 into G4750 their mouths G4314 that G846 they G3982 may obey G2254 us, G2532 G3329 we turn about G846 their G3650 whole G4983 body also.

4 G2400 Behold, G4143 the ships G2532 also, G5607 though G5082 they are so great G2532 and G1643 are driven G5259 by G4642 rough G417 winds, G3329 are yet turned about G5259 by G1646 a very small G4079 rudder, G3699 whither G302 G3730 the impulse G2116 of the steersman G1014 willeth.

5 G3779 So G1100 the tongue G2532 also G2076 is G3398 a little G3196 member, G2532 and G3166 boasteth great things. G2400 Behold, G2245 how much G5208 wood G381 is kindled G3641 by how small G4442 a fire!

6 G2532 And G1100 the tongue G2525 is G4442 a fire: G2889 the world G93 of iniquity G1722 among G2257 our G3196 members G3779 G2525 is G1100 the tongue, G4695 which defileth G3650 the whole G4983 body, G2532 and G5394 setteth on fire G5164 the wheel G1078 of nature, G2532 and G5394 is set on fire G1067 by hell.

7 G1063 For G3956 every G5449 kind G5037 of beasts G2532 and G4071 birds, G5037 G2062 of creeping things G5037 and G1724 things in the sea, G1150 is tamed, G2532 and G1150 hath been tamed G5449 by mankind.

8 G1161 But G1100 the tongue G1410 can G3762 no G444 man G1150 tame; G183 it is a restless G2556 evil, G3324 it is full G2287 of deadly G2447 poison.

9 G1722 Therewith G846 G2127 bless we G2316 the Lord G2532 and G3962 Father; G2532 and G1722 therewith G846 G2672 curse we G444 men, G3588 who G1096 are made G2596 after G3669 the likeness G2316 of God:

10 G1537 out of G846 the same G4750 mouth G1831 cometh G2129 forth blessing G2532 and G2671 cursing. G3450 My G80 brethren, G5023 these things G5534 ought G3756 not G3779 so G1096 to be.

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be not many of you teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment. ² For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also. ³ Behold, we put the horses' bridles into their mouths that they may obey us, we turn about their whole body also. ⁴ Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, whither the impulse of the steersman willeth. ⁵ So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the world of iniquity. Thus is the tongue set among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts and birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind. ⁸ But the tongue can no man tame, it is an unruly evil, it is full of deadly poison. ⁹ Therewith bless we the God and Father, and therewith curse we men, who are made after the likeness of God: ¹⁰ out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not, many teachers, become ye, my brethren, knowing that, a severer sentence, shall ye receive; ² For, oft, are we stumbling, one and all: If anyone, in word, doth not stumble, the same, is a mature man, able to curb even the whole body. ³ Now, if, the horses bits, into their mouths, we thrust, to the end they may be yielding to us, their whole body also, do we turn about. ⁴ Lo! the ships also, large as they are, and, by rough winds, driven along, are turned about by a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse of the steersman inclineth. ⁵ So, also, the tongue, is, a little member, and yet, of great things, maketh boast. Lo! how small a fire, kindleth, how great a forest; ⁶ And, the tongue, is a fire,––[as], the world of unrighteousness, the tongue, becometh fixed among our members, that which defileth the whole body and setteth on fire the wheel of our natural life, and is set on fire, by gehenna! ⁷ For, every nature––both of wild beasts and of birds, both of reptiles and of things in the sea, is to be tamed, and hath been tamed, by the human nature; ⁸ But, the tongue, none of mankind can, tame,––A restless mischief! Full of deadly poison ⁹ Therewith, are we blessing our Lord and Father, and, therewith, we are cursing the men who, after the likeness of God, have been brought into being! ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth, come forth blessing and cursing! Not meet, my brethren, for, these things, thus, to be coming to pass!

Twentieth_Century⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ I do not want many of you, my Brothers, to become teachers, knowing, as you do, that we who teach shall be judged by a more severe standard than others. ² We often make mistakes, every one of us. Any one who does not make mistakes when speaking is indeed a perfect man, able to bridle his whole body as well. ³ When we put bits into horses' mouths, to make them obey us, we control the rest of their bodies so. ⁴ Again, think of ships. Large as they are, and even when driven by fierce winds, they are controlled by a very small rudder and steered in whatever direction the man at the helm may determine. ⁵ So is it with the tongue. Small as it is, it is a great boaster. Think how tiny a spark may set the largest forest ablaze! ⁶ And the tongue is like a spark. Among the members of our body it proves itself a very world of mischief; it contaminates the whole body; it sets the wheels of life on fire, and is itself set on fire by the flames of the Pit. ⁷ For while all sorts of beasts and birds, and of reptiles and creatures in the sea, are tameable, and actually have been tamed by man, ⁸ No human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless plague! It is charged with deadly poison! ⁹ With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men who are made 'in God's likeness.' ¹⁰ From the very same mouth come blessings and curses! My Brothers, it is not right that this should be so.

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Be ye not many teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive the greater judgment. ² For we all fail in many things; if any one fails not in word, the same is a perfect man, able even to bridle the whole body. ³ But if we put bridles into the mouths of the horses, that they may obey us; and we manage their whole body; ⁴ behold also the ships, being so great, and driven by fierce winds, are managed by the smallest rudder, whithersoever the will of the steersman prefers; ⁵ so also the tongue is a little member, and it boasts great things. Behold, how great a wood a little fire kindles! ⁶ The tongue, a fire, the world of iniquity: the tongue sits down in the midst of our members, and corrupting the whole body, and setting on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire from hell. ⁷ For every nature both of wild beasts, and of birds, and of creeping things, and of oceanic animals, is subdued, and has been subjugated to human nature: ⁸ but no one of men is able to tame the tongue; an incorrigible evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless the Lord, even the Father; and with it we scold the people, who have been made after the image of God: ¹⁰ out of the same mouth come forth blessing and scolding. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Do not be eager, my brethren, for many among you to become teachers; for you know that we teachers shall undergo severer judgement. ² For we often stumble and fall, all of us. If there is any one who never stumbles in speech, that man has reached maturity of character and is able to curb his whole nature. ³ Remember that we put the horses' bit into their mouths to make them obey us, and so we turn their whole bodies round. ⁴ So too with ships, great as they are, and often driven along by strong gales, yet they can be steered with a very small rudder in whichever direction the caprice of the man at the helm chooses. ⁵ In the same way the tongue is an insignificant part of the body, but it is immensely boastful. Remember how a mere spark may set a vast forest in flames. 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. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth there proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, this ought not to be.

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brethren, become not many of you teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater judgment. ² For in many things we all stumble. If anyone stumbles not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to restrain also the whole body. ³ Now, if we put the horses' bridles into their mouths, that they may obey us, we turn about their whole body also. ⁴ Behold also the ships, large as they are, and driven along by fierce winds, are turned about by a very small rudder, wheresoever the impulse of the steersman wills. ⁵ So also the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how small a fire kindles how great a forest! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the world of iniquity! the tongue is placed among our members, as that which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of life, and is set on fire by Hell. ⁷ For every nature, both of wild beasts and birds, both of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed, by mankind; ⁸ but the tongue no man can tame; a restless evil, full of deadly poison! ⁹ Therewith we bless the Lord and Father; and therewith we curse men, who have been made after the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth come forth blessing and cursing! My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Moffatt⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers, do not swell the ranks of the teachers; remember, we teachers will be judged with special strictness. ² We all make many a slip, but whoever avoids slips of speech is a perfect man; he can bridle the whole of the body as well as the tongue. ³ We put bridles into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, and so, you see, we can move the whole of their bodies. ⁴ Look at ships too; for all their size and speed under stiff winds, they are turned by a tiny rudder wherever the mind of the steersman chooses. ⁵ So the tongue is a small member of the body, but it can boast of great exploits. What a forest is set ablaze by a little spark of fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the tongue proves a very world of mischief among our members, staining the whole of the body and setting fire to the round circle of existence with a flame fed by hell. ⁷ For while every kind of beast and bird, of creeping animals and creatures marine, is tameable and has been tamed by mankind, ⁸ no man can tame the tongue — plague of disorder that it is, full of deadly venom! ⁹ With the tongue we bless the Lord and Father, and with the tongue we curse men made in God's likeness; ¹⁰ blessing and cursing stream from the same lips! My brothers, this ought not to be.

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. ² For we all make many mistakes. Anyone who never makes a mistake in what he says has a character that is fully developed and is able to control his whole body as well. ³ If we put bridles into horses' mouths to make them obey us, we can guide their whole bodies. ⁴ Even ships, great as they are, and driven by strong winds, are steered with a very small rudder wherever the pilot pleases. ⁵ So the tongue is a little organ and yet very boastful. What a great forest a spark will set on fire! ⁶ 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. ⁷ For every kind of animal and bird, reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by man, ⁸ but no human being can tame the tongue. 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. ¹⁰ Blessing and cursing issue from the same mouth! This is not right, my brothers.

Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ DO not, many of you, become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we will receive severer judgment. ² For in many ways we all stumble. If any one never stumbles in his talk, he is a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body. ³ If we put bits into the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we turn about their whole bodies. ⁴ See the ships; great as they are and driven by violent winds, they are turned about by a very small rudder wherever the desire of the helmsman chooses. ⁵ Just so the tongue is a small member, but boasts of great things. Think how small a fire may be and yet how vast the forest that it may set ablaze. ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of wickedness. The tongue stands among our members as that which spots the whole body and sets on fire the wheel of nature and is itself set on fire by Gehenna. ⁷ For every kind of wild beasts and birds and reptiles and animals from the sea is tamed and has been tamed by human kind, ⁸ but the tongue no man is able to tame. It is a restless evil; it is full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless the Lord our Father and with it we curse the men who are made in the image of God. ¹⁰ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. This, my brethren, should not be so.

MNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Do not become many teachers, my brothers, because you know well that we teachers shall be judged by a severer standard than others. ² For in many respects we often stumble. If any man never stumbles in speech, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well. ³ When we put bits in the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we control their whole body also. ⁴ Look at the ships too, though they are so large, even when driven by fierce winds they are turned by a very small rudder, wherever the impulse of the helmsman wills. 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. ⁹ With it we continually bless our Lord and Father, and with it we are accustomed to curse men made in the image of God. ¹⁰ From out of the same mouth pour forth blessings and cursings! My brothers, this ought not to be so.

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ MY brethren, do not allow doubtful teachers among you; but know, that we are under a great judgment. ² For in many things we all stumble. Anyone who does not offend in word, this one is a perfect man, and able also to subdue his whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, great as they are, when driven by severe winds, they are turned about with a very small rudder, wherever the pilot wishes. ⁵ Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Likewise, a small fire sets ablaze the large forests. ⁶ The tongue is a fire, and the sinful world like a forest: that very tongue, while it is among our members, can defile our whole body, and set on fire the records of our race which have rolled down from the beginning: and in the end it is consumed by fire. ⁷ For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of creatures of the sea and of the land are under the subjugation of the will of man. ⁸ But the tongue no man can tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ By it we bless the LORD and the Father; and by it we curse men, who are made in the image of God: ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceed curses and blessings. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many should become teachers, my brethren, being aware that we shall be getting greater judgment." ² For we all are tripping much. If anyone is not tripping in word, this one is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also." ³ Now if we are thrusting the horses' bits into their mouths, so that they are yielding to us, we are steering their whole body also with it." ⁴ Lo! the ships also, being of such proportions, and driven by hard winds, are being steered by the least rudder, wherever the impulse of the helmsman is intending." ⁵ Thus the tongue, also, is a little member and is grandiloquent. Lo! What amount of fire is kindling what amount of material!" ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of injustice. The tongue is constituted among our members that which is spotting the whole body, and setting the wheel of our lineage aflame, and is set aflame by Gehenna." ⁷ For every nature, both of wild beasts and flying creatures, both of reptiles and those of the salt sea, is tamed and has been tamed by human nature." ⁸ Yet the tongue can no man tame - a turbulent evil, distended with death-carrying venom." ⁹ With it we are blessing the Lord and Father, and with it we are cursing men who have come to be in accord with God's likeness." ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth is coming forth blessing and cursing. There is no need, my brethren, for this to become thus."

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Many of you, my brothers, should avoid becoming teachers, because you know that we teachers are going to be judged with stricter judgment than other people. ² For we all make many a slip. If anyone never slips in speech, he is a man of maturity; he can control his whole body too. ³ If we put bridles into horses' mouths to make them obey us, we can guide their whole bodies, too. ⁴ Look at ships, too; though great and driven by violent winds, they are steered with a tiny rudder wherever the pilot pleases. ⁵ So the tongue, too, is a little organ but can boast of great achievements. See how a spark, ever so tiny, can set a vast forest on fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, and takes its place among the parts of our bodies as a world of evil; it soils the whole body and sets on fire the circle of man's nature, and itself is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of beasts and birds, of reptiles and sea animals, can be, or have been, tamed by man; ⁸ but the tongue no human being can tame. It is an evil incapable of being quieted, 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. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth flow blessing and cursing! It ought not to be like this, my brothers.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more hardly than others. ² For we all go wrong in a number of things. If a man never makes a slip in his talk, then he is a complete man and able to keep all his body in control. ³ Now if we put bits of iron into horses' mouths so that they may be guided by us, we have complete control of their bodies. ⁴ And again ships, though they are so great and are moved by violent winds, are turned by a very small guiding-blade, at the impulse of the man who is using it. ⁵ Even so the tongue is a small part of the body, but it takes credit for great things. How much wood may be lighted by a very little fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire; it is the power of evil placed in our bodies, making all the body unclean, putting the wheel of life on fire, and getting its fire from hell. ⁷ For every sort of beast and bird and every living thing on earth and in the sea has been controlled by man and is under his authority; ⁸ But the tongue may not be controlled by man; it is an unresting evil, it is full of the poison of death. ⁹ With it we give praise to our Lord and Father; and with it we put a curse on men who are made in God's image. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not right for these things to be so.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers, do not be many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ² For in many things we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same is a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, so that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships being so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small rudder, where the impulse of him steering desires. ⁵ Even so 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, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell. ⁷ For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind. ⁸ But no one can tame the tongue, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ By this we bless God, even the Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers do not be many teachers, knowing that we will receive greater judgment. ² For we all stumble in many ways . If any one does not stumble in word, this one is a mature man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold, we put bits in the mouths of the horses, for them to obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴ Behold, the ships also, being so great, and being driven by violent winds, they are directed by a very small rudder, where the impulse of the one steering purposes. 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. ⁹ By this we bless God and the Father; and by this we curse men having come into being according to the image of God. Gen. 1:26 ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers it is not fitting for these things to be so.

ECB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹
ESTING THE TONGUE
y brothers, be not many doctors; knowing that we take the greater condemnation: ² for we all stumble much. If anyone stumbles not in word, this one is a completed/shalamed man, also able to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold the horses; we put bits in their mouths to obey us; and we turn their whole body. ⁴ Behold, also the sailers; being so great and driven of hard winds; yet are they turned by a very short rudder wherever the violent impulse of the straightener wills. ⁵ Thus also the tongue; a little member that boasts mega. Behold, how much forest a little fire lights! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire - a cosmos of injustice: thus the tongue sits among our members to stain the whole body and inflame the track of genetics; and it is inflamed by Gay Hinnom/the Valley of Burning. ⁷ For all nature, both of beasts and of flyers, both of creepers and of those in the sea, is tamed - and has been tamed by human nature: ⁸ but the tongue, no human can tame - an unrestrainable evil full of death bearing venom: ⁹ therein we eulogize our Elohim and Father; and therein we curse humanity who became after the likeness of Elohim. ¹⁰ From the same mouth comes eulogy and cursing. My brothers, these need not be thus.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many of you should be teachers, my brothers, because you [should] know that we [teachers] will be judged more strictly. ² For we all make mistakes in many areas [of life]. If anyone does not make a mistake in what he says, he is a perfect person, capable of keeping a tight rein on his whole life also. ³ Now if we put bits in the mouths of horses so that they will obey us, we can govern the direction of their entire bodies as well. ⁴ Look, even though ships are huge and are driven by strong winds, still their direction can be governed by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires to sail. ⁵ So, the tongue is a small part [of the body], yet it boasts of great accomplishments. Look at how large a forest is burned up by even a tiny spark. ⁶ And the tongue is [like] a fire [i.e., like that spark]. [For] the tongue, as a part of the body, is [like] the world of evil. It corrupts the entire life [of a person] and inflames the course of nature itself [i.e., it affects a person throughout his whole earthly existence], and is ignited by hell itself [i.e., the evil produced by the fiery tongue has hell as its source and destiny]. ⁷ For all kinds of animals and birds and reptiles and ocean creatures are being subdued and have been subdued by mankind, ⁸ but no one can subdue the tongue. It is an uncontrollable [source of] evil and full of deadly poison. ⁹ We praise the Lord and Father with it, and [also] curse men who are created in God’s likeness with it. ¹⁰ Praise and cursing come out of the same mouth! My brothers, these things should not be happening.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many should become teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive greater judgment. ² For we all stumble in many things. If any man does not stumble in word, this is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Behold we put bits into the mouths of horses for them to obey us, and we guide about their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, being so great and driven by fierce winds, are guided about by a very small rudder, wherever the impulse of the man who steers determines. ⁵ So also the tongue is a little body-part, and boasts greatly. Behold a little fire, how much wood it kindles. ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Thus, the tongue is made to lead among our body-parts, defiling the whole body, and setting the cycle of nature on fire, and being set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every species, both of beasts and of birds, both of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by the human species. ⁸ But no man is able to tame the tongue of men, an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ By it we bless the God and Father, and by it we curse men, who were made according to a likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and curse. My brothers, these things ought not to happen this way.

Common⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. ² For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well. ³ If we put bits into the mouths of horses that they may obey us, we guide their whole bodies. ⁴ Look at the ships also; though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. ⁵ So also the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things.

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ¶ My brethren, make not unto yourselves many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ² For we all offend in many things. If any man offends not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to govern the whole body with restraint. ³ Behold, we put bits (or restraint) in the horses’ mouths to persuade them, and we govern their whole body. ⁴ Behold also the ships, which though they are so great are driven of fierce winds, yet they are governed with a very small rudder, wherever the governor desires. ⁵ In the same manner, the tongue is a very small member and boasts of great things. Behold, how great a forest a little fire kindles! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defiles the whole body and sets on fire the course of our nature; and it is set on fire of hell. ⁷ For every nature of beasts and of birds and of serpents and of beings in the sea may be tamed and is tamed by mankind, ⁸ but no man can tame the tongue, which is an evil that cannot be restrained and is full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless God, even the Father; and with it we curse men, who are made in the image of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers, let not many become teachers, knowing that we shall receive greater judgment. ² For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a mature man, able also to bridle the whole body. ³ Consider that we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body. ⁴ Consider also the ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the impulse of the pilot desires. ⁵ Even so the tongue is a small member and it boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. Thus the tongue is set among our members, as that which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every kind of both beasts and birds, of both reptiles and sea creatures, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. ⁸ But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unrestrainable evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who are created according to the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth come blessings and curses. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers, not many of you should become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. ² Because we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, being able to bridle the whole body as well. ³ Consider, we put bits in horses’ mouths for them to obey us, and we guide their whole body. ⁴ Consider also the ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the impulse of the pilot may desire. ⁵ So also the tongue is a small member and boasts great things. Just look at how great a forest a little fire can kindle! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire! The organization of wickedness, that is how the tongue is placed among our members, defiling the whole body and setting on fire the course of life, itself being set on fire by hell. ⁷ Every kind of animal and bird, reptile and sea creature, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race, ⁸ but no one among men is able to tame the tongue—an uncontrollable evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse the people who have been made in God’s likeness. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceed blessings and curses. My brothers, these things should not be that way.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ My brothers (= fellow members), do not continue to become many teachers (or: stop becoming a bunch of instructors; or: let not many of you folks proceed to be made teachers), seeing, and knowing, that we shall receive [a] greater effect from the decision (or: will take more intense scrutiny and evaluation; will get a stronger result of the separation; will receive heavier judgment), ² for we all are tripping and stumbling (= making mistakes) many times [and] are causing many to entangle their feet, lose balance, and stumble. If anyone is not continually stumbling in word (or: collected thought; reason; or: = what he says), this one is a mature male adult (or: a perfect husband; = a complete and finished person), with power and able also to guide the whole body [as] with a bridle. ³ Now if we are thrusting the bridle bits into the horses' mouths to make them continually yield themselves to us, we also continually lead together (or: change the course of and direct) their whole body. ⁴ Consider also the ships, being of so great size, and being constantly driven under rough and hard winds. They are continually steered under (or: by) the smallest rudder, wherever the impulse of the helmsman (the one presently guiding straight and right) continues determining and intending. ⁵ Thus also, the tongue is a little member of the body, and yet is continuously making a great boast [other MSS: constantly brags about great things] – consider how great a forest a little fire progressively sets ablaze (or: lights up)! ⁶ Well the tongue [is] a fire; [its fuel is] the System of injustice (or: the ordered and decorated but dominating world of secular culture, religion, politics and government which is unjust; or: The tongue, also, [is] fire: the world of disregard for what is right). The tongue is placed down within our members, continuously spotting (staining; = defiling) the whole body, and repeatedly setting on fire the wheel of birth (= the cycle of the origin [of life], or of generation; the wheel of genesis), as well as being continuously set on fire by (or: under) the garbage dump (the depository of refuse; Greek: Gehenna – the Valley of Hinnom). ⁷ For every nature, both of wild animals and of flying creatures, both of creeping animals and of those in the salt sea, is continuously being restrained (tamed) and has been restrained by the nature of man (the human nature). ⁸ But the tongue – an unruly (un-restrainable; other MSS: unfixed; unstable; restless), worthless (ugly; bad; malicious; unrefined; harmful; base) [member], full of death-bearing venom – no one of humanity is able (continues having power) to subdue, restrain or tame. ⁹ With it we continuously speak well of (or: speak a good word about; bless) the Lord [other MSS: God] and Father, and with it we constantly curse (pray down upon) those men having been born “according to (down from and corresponding to) God's likeness.” [Gen. 1:26-27] ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth is continuously coming forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, there is no need (or: it is not necessary) for these things thus to be repeatedly birthed (or: to keep on happening in this way).

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Many of you should not be teachers, my brothers. You know that we will receive a heavier (stricter) judgment. ² We all stumble in many things. If any do not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able to restrain (control) the whole body. ³ We put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us. We guide their whole bodies. ⁴ Look at ships. They are large and are driven by rough winds. Yet a very small rudder can control them, wherever the captain wills. ⁵ The tongue also is a little member. It boasts great things. Consider how great a forest fire a small fire kindles! ⁶ The tongue is like fire, the place of iniquity among our members. It defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of our life. It is set ablaze like the ever-burning fires in the Valley of Hinnom (Greek: Gehenna: symbolic of total destruction). ⁷ Every kind of beast and bird, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind. ⁸ But no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil. It is full of deadly poison. ⁹ We bless Jehovah, the Father, with it.

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Speak WiselyNot many of you should become teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more severely than others. ² For all of us make many mistakes. If someone does not make any mistakes when he speaks, he is perfect and able to control his whole body. ³ Now if we put bits into horses’ mouths to make them obey us, we can guide their whole bodies as well. ⁴ And look at ships! They are so big that it takes strong winds to drive them, yet they are steered by a tiny rudder wherever the helmsman directs.
⁵ In the same way, the tongue is a small part of the body, yet it can boast of great achievements. A huge forest can be set on fire by a little flame. ⁶ The tongue is a fire, a world of evil. Placed among the parts of our bodies, the tongue contaminates the whole body and sets on fire the course of life, and is itself set on fire by hell. ⁷ For all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and sea creatures can be or have been tamed by humans, ⁸ but no one can tame the tongue. It is an uncontrollable evil filled with deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse those who are made in God’s likeness. ¹⁰ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. It should not be like this, my brothers!

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not many should become teachers, my brothers, because you* know that we will receive a greater judgment.* ² For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect individual,* able to hold in check his whole body also. ³ And if we put bits in the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we also guide their whole bodies. ⁴ Behold also ships: although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot wishes. ⁵ So also the tongue is a small member of the body* and boasts great things. Behold how small a fire sets ablaze how great a forest! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire! The world of unrighteousness,* the tongue, is set among our members, defiling the whole body and setting on fire _⌊the course of human existence_⌋*, being set on fire by hell. ⁷ For every species of animals and birds, of reptiles and sea creatures, is being tamed and has been tamed by the human species, ⁸ but no human being is able to tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless the* Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. ¹⁰ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing.

Behold a small fire, how great a forest it kindles. ⁶ The tongue also is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, defiling all the body, and setting on fire the course of nature, and itself being set on fire by Gehenna. ⁷ For every species both of beasts and of birds, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued and has been subdued by the human race, ⁸ but no one of men is able to subdue the tongue; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, those being made according to the likeness of God. ¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceed forth blessing and cursing.

⁵ So the tongue is also a little member and boasts of magnificent things. Behold, how-vast a forest it lights with such a small fire! ⁶ And the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Thus the tongue is designated among our members as what stains the whole body and ignites the birth cycle and is ignited by hell. ⁷ For every nature of beasts and birds, of reptiles and sea-creatures, is tamed and has been tamed by human nature. ⁸ But no one from mankind is able to tame the tongue; it is an uncontrollable evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹ We are giving-thanks to God and the Father with it and we curse men with it, those who have become according to the likeness of God. ¹⁰ A thanks and a curse comes out of the same mouth.

Die Zunge ist unter unseren Gliedern gesetzt, O. stellt sich dar als die den ganzen Leib befleckt und den Lauf der Natur O. des Lebens, des Daseins anzündet und von der Hölle angezündet wird. ⁷ Denn jede Natur, sowohl der Tiere als der Vögel, sowohl der kriechenden als der Meertiere, wird gebändigt und ist gebändigt worden durch die menschliche Natur; ⁸ die Zunge aber kann keiner der Menschen bändigen: sie ist ein unstetes Übel, voll tödlichen Giftes. ⁹ Mit ihr preisen O. segnen wir den Herrn und Vater, O. und den Vater und mit ihr fluchen wir den Menschen, die nach dem Bilde O.

Si quelqu'un ne faillit pas en paroles, celui-là est un homme parfait, capable de tenir aussi tout le corps en bride. ³ Voici, nous mettons les mors des chevaux dans leurs bouches, pour qu'ils nous obéissent, et nous dirigeons çà et là leur corps tout entier. ⁴ Voici, les navires aussi, qui sont si grands et qui sont poussés par des vents violents, sont dirigés çà et là par un très-petit gouvernail, où que ce soit que le veuille l'impulsion de celui qui les gouverne. ⁵ Ainsi aussi la langue est un petit membre et elle se vante de grandes choses. Voici, un petit feu, quelle grande forêt allume-t-il! ⁶ Et la langue est un feu. La langue, un monde d'iniquité, est établie parmi nos membres; c'est elle qui souille tout le corps, et enflamme tout le cours de la nature, et est enflammée par la géhenne. ⁷ Car toute espèce de bêtes sauvages et d'oiseaux, de reptiles et d'animaux marins, se dompte et à été domptée par l'espèce humaine; ⁸ mais pour la langue, aucun des hommes ne peut la dompter: c'est un mal désordonné, plein d'un venin mortel. ⁹ Par elle nous bénissons le Seigneur et Père, et par elle nous maudissons les hommes faits à la ressemblance de Dieu; ¹⁰ de la même bouche procède la bénédiction et la malédiction.

Voilà aussi un petit feu, combien de bois allume-t-il? ⁶ La langue aussi est un feu, et un monde d'iniquité; car la langue est telle entre nos membres, qu'elle souille tout le corps, et enflamme tout le monde qui a été créé, étant elle-même enflammée du feu de la géhenne. ⁷ Car toute espèce de bêtes sauvages, d'oiseaux, de reptiles, et de poissons de la mer, se dompte, et a été domptée par la nature humaine. ⁸ Mais nul homme ne peut dompter la langue : c'est un mal qui ne se peut réprimer, et elle est pleine d'un venin mortel. ⁹ Par elle nous bénissons notre Dieu et Père; et par elle nous maudissons les hommes, faits à la ressemblance de Dieu. ¹⁰ D'une même bouche procède la bénédiction et la malédiction.

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ لا تكونوا معلّمين كثيرين يا اخوتي عالمين اننا نأخذ دينونة اعظم ² لاننا في اشياء كثيرة نعثر جميعنا. ان كان احد لا يعثر في الكلام فذاك رجل كامل قادر ان يلجم كل الجسد ايضا. ³ هوذا الخيل نضع اللجم في افواهها لكي تطاوعنا فندير جسمها كله. ⁴ هوذا السفن ايضا وهي عظيمة بهذا المقدار وتسوقها رياح عاصفة تديرها دفة صغيرة جدا الى حيثما شاء قصد المدير. ⁵ هكذا اللسان ايضا هو عضو صغير ويفتخر متعظما. هوذا نار قليلة اي وقود تحرق. ⁶ فاللسان نار. عالم الاثم. هكذا جعل في اعضائنا اللسان الذي يدنس الجسم كله ويضرم دائرة الكون ويضرم من جهنم. ⁷ لان كل طبع للوحوش والطيور والزحافات والبحريات يذلل وقد تذلل للطبع البشري. ⁸ واما اللسان فلا يستطيع احد من الناس ان يذلله. هو شر لا يضبط مملوء سمّا مميتا. ⁹ به نبارك الله الآب وبه نلعن الناس الذين قد تكوّنوا على شبه الله. ¹⁰ من الفم الواحد تخرج بركة ولعنة. لا يصلح يا اخوتي ان تكون هذه الامور هكذا.

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Братя мои, не ставайте мнозина учители, като знаете, че ще приемем по-строга присъда. ² Защото ние всички грешим в много неща; а който не греши в говорене, той е съвършен мъж, способен да обуздае и цялото тяло. ³ Ето, ние слагаме юзди в устата на конете, за да ни се покоряват, и управляваме цялото им тяло. ⁴ Ето, и корабите, ако и да са толкова големи и да се тласкат от силни ветрове, пак с много малко кормило се обръщат накъдето желае кормчията. ⁵ Така и езикът е малка част, но с големи неща се хвали. Ето, съвсем малък огън, а колко голяма гора запалва! ⁶ И езикът е огън, светът на неправдата. Между нашите части езикът е, който опетнява цялото тяло и запалва колелото на живота, а сам той се запалва от пъкъла. ⁷ Защото всякакъв вид зверове и птици, влечуги и морски животни се укротяват и са били укротени от човечеството; ⁸ но езика никой човек не може да укроти; неудържимо зло е, пълен със смъртоносна отрова. ⁹ С него благославяме Бога и Отца и с него кълнем хората, създадени по Божие подобие! ¹⁰ От същите уста излизат и благословение, и проклятие! Братя мои, това не трябва да бъде така.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Neka vas, braćo moja, ne bude mnogo učitelja! Ta znate: bit ćemo strože suđeni. ² Doista, svi mnogo griješimo. Ako tko u govoru ne griješi, savršen je čovjek, vrstan zauzdati i cijelo tijelo. ³ Ubacimo li uzde u usta konjima da ih sebi upokorimo, upravljamo i cijelim tijelom njihovim. ⁴ Evo i lađa: tolike su i silni ih vjetrovi gone, a neznatno ih kormilo upravlja kamo kormilarova volja hoće. ⁵ Tako i jezik: malen je ud, a velikim se može ponositi. Evo: kolicna vatra koliku šumu zapali! ⁶ I jezik je vatra, svijet nepravda jezik je među našim udovima, kalja cijelo tijelo te, zapaljen od pakla, zapaljuje kotač života. ⁷ Doista, sav rod zvijeri i ptica, gmazova i morskih životinja dade se ukrotiti, i rod ih je ljudski ukrotio, ⁸ a jezik - zlo nemirno, pun otrova smrtonosnog - nitko od ljudi ne može ukrotiti. ⁹ Njime blagoslivljamo Gospodina i Oca, njime i proklinjemo ljude na sliku Božju stvorene: ¹⁰ iz istih usta izlazi blagoslov i prokletstvo.

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Nebuďtež mnozí mistři, bratří moji, vědouce, že bychom těžší odsouzení vzali. ² V mnohém zajisté klesáme všickni. Kdožť neklesá v slovu, tenť jest dokonalý muž, mohoucí jako uzdou spravovati všecko tělo. ³ An my koně v uzdu pojímáme, aby nám povolni byli, a vším tělem jejich vládneme. ⁴ An i lodí tak veliké jsouce a prudkými větry hnány bývajíce, však i nejmenším veslem bývají sem i tam obracíny, kamžkoli líbí se tomu, kdož je spravuje. ⁵ Tak i jazyk malý úd jest, avšak veliké věci provodí. Aj, maličký oheň, kterak veliký les zapálí! ⁶ A jestiť jazyk jako oheň a svět nepravosti. Takť jest, pravím, postaven jazyk mezi údy našimi, nanečišťující celé tělo, a rozpalující kolo narození našeho, jsa rozněcován od ohně pekelného. ⁷ Všeliké zajisté přirození i zvěři, i ptactva, i hadů, i mořských potvor bývá zkroceno, a jest okroceno od lidí; ⁸ Ale jazyka žádný z lidí zkrotiti nemůže; tak jest nezkrotitelné zlé, pln jsa jedu smrtelného. ⁹ Jím dobrořečíme Bohu Otci a jím zlořečíme lidem, ku podobenství Božímu stvořeným. ¹⁰ Z jedněch a týchž úst pochází dobrořečení i zlořečení. Ne takť býti má, bratří moji.

See, en liden Ild, hvor stor en Skov antænder den! ⁶ Ogsaa Tungen er en Ild, en Verden af Uretfærdighed! Saaledes er Tungen iblandt voreLemmer; den besmitter det ganske Legeme og sætter Slægt efter Slægt i Brand, selv fat i Brand af Helvede. ⁷ Thi al natur, baade Dyrs og Fugles, baade Ormes og Havdyrs, tæmmes og er tæmmet af den menneskelige natur; ⁸ men Tungen kan intet Menneske tæmme, det ustyrlige Onde, fuld af dødelig Forgift. ⁹ Med den velsigne vi Gud og Faderen, og med den forbande vi Menneskene, som ere gjorte efter Guds Lignelse. ¹⁰ Af dem samme Mund udgaaer Velsignelse og Forbandelse.

Vaata, kui pisuke tuli süütab suure metsa! ⁶ Samuti on keel tuli, on maailm täis ülekohut; keel meie liikmete seas saab selliseks, mis reostab kogu ihu ja süütab põlema eluratta, nagu ta ise on süüdatud põrgust. ⁷ Sest kõikide, niihästi metselajate kui lindude, niihästi roomajate kui mereelajate loomu võib inimese loomujõud talitseda ja on talitsenud, ⁸ kuid keelt ei suuda ükski inimene talitseda, seda rahutut pahategijat, täis surmavat mürki. ⁹ Sellega me täname Issandat ja Isa, ja sellega me sajatame inimesi, kes on loodud Jumala sarnaseiks. ¹⁰ Samast suust lähtuvad tänu ja sajatus! Nii ei tohi olla, mu vennad!

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Älkäät, rakkaat veljeni, jokainen pyytäkö opettajana olla, tietäen, että me sitä suuremman tuomion saamme. ² Sillä moninaisissa me kukin puutumme. Mutta joka ei puheessa lankee, se on täydellinen mies, joka voi myös koko ruumiinsa suistaa. ³ Katso, me panemme hevosten suuhun suitset, että he meitä kuulisivat, ja heidän koko ruumiinsa me käännämme ympäri. ⁴ Katso, laivat myös, ehkä kuinka suuret he ovat ja jaloilta tuulilta ajetaan, kuitenkin he käännetään ympäri vähällä perälaudalla, kuhunka se tahtoo, joka sitä hallitsee. ⁵ Niin myös kieli on piskuinen jäsen, ja kuitenkin suuria asioita toimittaa. Katso, vähä tuli, kuinka suuren metsän se sytyttää, ⁶ Ja kieli on myös tuli, maailma vääryyttä täynnänsä; niin on myös kieli meidän jäsentemme seassa, joka koko ruumiin saastuttaa, ja sytyttää kaiken meidän menomme, koska se helvetistä syttyy. ⁷ Sillä kaikki luonto, sekä petoin että lintuin ja kärmetten ja merellisten, tehdään lakiaksi, ja on lakiaksi tehty inhimilliseltä luonnolta. ⁸ Mutta kieltä ei taida yksikään ihminen asettaa, sitä levotointa pahuutta, kuolettavaista myrkkyä täynnänsä. ⁹ Sen kautta me kiitämme Jumalaa ja Isää, ja sen kautta me myös kiroilemme ihmisiä, jotka Jumalan kuvan jälkeen luodut ovat. ¹⁰ Yhdestä suusta kiitos ja kirous käy ulos. Ei se niin, rakkaat veljeni, oleman pidä.

FinnishPR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Veljeni, älkööt aivan monet teistä pyrkikö opettajiksi, sillä te tiedätte, että me saamme sitä kovemman tuomion. ² Sillä monessa kohden me kaikki hairahdumme. Jos joku ei hairahdu puheessa, niin hän on täydellinen mies ja kykenee hillitsemään myös koko ruumiinsa. ³ Kun panemme suitset hevosten suuhun, että ne meitä tottelisivat, niin voimme ohjata niiden koko ruumiin. ⁴ Katso, laivatkin, vaikka ovat niin suuria ja tuimain tuulten kuljetettavia, ohjataan varsin pienellä peräsimellä, minne perämiehen mieli tekee. ⁵ Samoin myös kieli on pieni jäsen ja voi kuitenkin kerskata suurista asioista. Katso, kuinka pieni tuli, ja kuinka suuren metsän se sytyttää! ⁶ Myös kieli on tuli, on vääryyden maailma; kieli on se meidän jäsenistämme, joka tahraa koko ruumiin, sytyttää tuleen elämän pyörän, itse syttyen helvetistä. ⁷ Sillä kaiken luonnon, sekä petojen että lintujen, sekä matelijain että merieläinten luonnon, voi ihmisluonto kesyttää ja onkin kesyttänyt; ⁸ mutta kieltä ei kukaan ihminen voi kesyttää; se on levoton ja paha, täynnä kuolettavaa myrkkyä. ⁹ Kielellä me kiitämme Herraa ja Isää, ja sillä me kiroamme ihmisiä, Jumalan kaltaisiksi luotuja; ¹⁰ samasta suusta lähtee kiitos ja kirous. Näin ei saa olla, veljeni.

Haitian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Frè m' yo, se pa pou anpil moun nan mitan nou kouri dèyè plas dirèktè. Paske, konnen byen: lè nou dirèktè, Bondye ap jije nou pi sevè pase lòt yo. ² Nou tout nou bite nan plizyè sans. Yon moun ki pa janm bite nan pawòl li, se yon moun ki bon nèt; moun sa a kapab kontwole tout kò l' byen tou. ³ Nou mete yon mò nan bouch chwal pou fè yo obeyi nou. Avèk sa, nou fè y ale kote nou vle. ⁴ Se menm jan an tou ak bato. Gwo kou l' gwo, gwo van te mèt ap pouse l', se yon ti gouvènay ki dirije li. Ak gouvènay tou piti sa a, kaptenn lan mennen l'l kote l' vle. ⁵ Konsa tou ak lang moun. Piti kou li piti, li vante tèt li pou gwo bagay li ka fè. Gade ki jan yon ti flanm dife ka boule yon gwo rakbwa! ⁶ Enben, lang se tankou dife. Se la tout lenjistis rete. Paske se yon manm nan kò nou li ye, l'ap kontaminen tout kò a nèt. Se lanfè menm ki mete dife nan li. Apre sa, li menm pou tèt pa l', li mete dife nan tout lavi nou. ⁷ Moun ka donte tout kalite bèt, zwezo, bèt ki trennen sou vant, bèt ki nan lanmè. Li menm rive donte yo deja. ⁸ Men, pou lang lan menm, pesonn poko ka donte li. Se yon move bagay ou pa ka kontwole, li plen pwazon ki ka touye moun. ⁹ Avèk lang nou, nou fè lwanj Bondye papa nou. Avèk menm lang lan, nou bay moun madichon, moun Bondye te kreye pòtre ak li. ¹⁰ Menm bouch la bay benediksyon, li bay madichon tou. Frè m' yo, sa pa dwe fèt konsa.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Atyámfiai, ne legyetek sokan tanítók, tudván azt, hogy súlyosabb ítéletünk lészen. ² Mert mindnyájan sokképen vétkezünk. Ha valaki beszédben nem vétkezik, az tökéletes ember, képes az egész testét is megzabolázni. ³ Ímé a lovaknak szájába zabolát vetünk, hogy engedelmeskedjenek nékünk, és az õ egész testöket igazgatjuk. ⁴ Ímé a hajók is, noha mily nagyok, és erõs szelektõl hajtatnak, mindazáltal igen kis kormánytól oda fordíttatnak, a hová a kormányos szándéka akarja. ⁵ Ezenképen a nyelv is kicsiny tag és nagy dolgokkal hányja magát. Ímé csekély tûz mily nagy erdõt felgyújt! ⁶ A nyelv is tûz, a gonoszságnak összessége. Úgy van a nyelv a mi tagjaink között, hogy megszeplõsíti az egész testet, és lángba borítja élet[ünk] folyását, [maga] is lángba boríttatván a gyehennától. ⁷ Mert minden természet, vadállatoké, madaraké, csúszómászóké és vízieké megszelídíthetõ és meg is szelidíttetett az emberi természet által: ⁸ De a nyelvet az emberek közül senki sem szelidítheti meg; fékezhetetlen gonosz az, halálos méreggel teljes. ⁹ Ezzel áldjuk az Istent és Atyát, és ezzel átkozzuk az embereket, a kik az Isten hasonlatosságára teremttettek: ¹⁰ Ugyanabból a szájból jõ ki áldás és átok. Atyámfiai, nem kellene ezeknek így lenni!

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Saudara-saudara! Janganlah banyak-banyak dari antaramu yang mau menjadi guru. Kalian tahu bahwa kita yang menjadi guru akan diadili dengan lebih keras daripada orang lain. ² Kita semua sering membuat kesalahan. Tetapi orang yang tidak pernah membuat kesalahan dengan kata-katanya, ia orang yang sempurna, yang dapat menguasai seluruh dirinya. ³ Kalau kita memasang kekang pada mulut kuda supaya ia menuruti kemauan kita, maka kita dapat mengendalikan seluruh badan kuda itu. ⁴ Ambillah juga kapal sebagai contoh. Meskipun kapal adalah sesuatu yang begitu besar dan dibawa oleh angin yang keras, namun ia dikendalikan oleh kemudi yang sangat kecil, menurut keinginan jurumudi. ⁵ Begitu juga dengan lidah kita; meskipun lidah kita itu kecil, namun ia dapat menyombongkan diri tentang hal-hal yang besar-besar. Bayangkan betapa besarnya hutan dapat dibakar oleh api yang sangat kecil! ⁶ Lidah sama dengan api. Di tubuh kita, ia merupakan sumber kejahatan yang menyebarkan kejahatan ke seluruh diri kita. Dengan api yang berasal dari neraka, ia menghanguskan seluruh hidup kita. ⁷ Segala macam binatang buas, burung, binatang menjalar dan ikan dapat dijinakkan, dan sudah pula dijinakkan oleh manusia. ⁸ Tetapi lidah manusia tidak dapat dijinakkan oleh seorang pun. Lidah itu jahat dan tidak dapat dikuasai; penuh dengan racun yang mematikan. ⁹ Kita menggunakannya untuk mengucapkan terima kasih kepada Tuhan dan Bapa kita, tetapi juga untuk mengutuki sesama manusia, yang telah diciptakan menurut rupa Allah. ¹⁰ Dari mulut yang sama keluar kata-kata terima kasih dan juga kata-kata kutukan. Seharusnya tidak demikian!

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ FRATELLI miei, non siate molti maestri; sapendo che noi ne riceveremo maggior condannazione. ² Poichè tutti falliamo in molte cose; se alcuno non fallisce nel parlare, esso è uomo compiuto, e può tenere a freno eziandio tutto il corpo. ³ Ecco, noi mettiamo i freni nelle bocche de’ cavalli, acciocchè ci ubbidiscano, e facciamo volgere tutto il corpo loro. ⁴ Ecco ancora le navi, benchè sieno cotanto grandi, e che sieno sospinte da fieri venti, son volte con un piccolissimo timone, dovunque il movimento di colui che le governa vuole. ⁵ Così ancora la lingua è un piccol membro, e si vanta di gran cose. Ecco, un piccol fuoco quante legne incende! ⁶ La lingua altresì è un fuoco, è il mondo dell’iniquità; così dentro alle nostre membra è posta la lingua, la qual contamina tutto il corpo, e infiamma la ruota della vita, ed è infiammata dalla geenna. ⁷ Poichè ogni generazione di fiere, e d’uccelli, e di rettili, e d’animali marini, si doma ed è stata domata dalla natura umana; ⁸ ma niun uomo può domar la lingua; ella è un male che non si può rattenere; è piena di mortifero veleno. ⁹ Per essa benediciamo Iddio e Padre; e per essa malediciamo gli uomini, che son fatti alla simiglianza di Dio. ¹⁰ D’una medesima bocca procede benedizione e maledizione. Non bisogna, fratelli miei, che queste cose si facciano in questa maniera.

Se uno non falla nel parlare, esso è un uomo perfetto, capace di tenere a freno anche tutto il corpo. ³ Se mettiamo il freno in bocca ai cavalli perché ci ubbidiscano, noi guidiamo anche tutto quanto il loro corpo. ⁴ Ecco, anche le navi, benché siano così grandi e sian sospinte da fieri venti, son dirette da un piccolissimo timone, dovunque vuole l’impulso di chi le governa. ⁵ Così anche la lingua è un piccol membro, e si vanta di gran cose. Vedete un piccol fuoco, che gran foresta incendia! ⁶ Anche la lingua è un fuoco, è il mondo dell’iniquità. Posta com’è fra le nostre membra, contamina tutto il corpo e infiamma la ruota della vita, ed è infiammata dalla geenna. ⁷ Ogni sorta di fiere e d’uccelli, di rettili e di animali marini si doma, ed è stata domata dalla razza umana; ⁸ ma la lingua, nessun uomo la può domare; è un male senza posa, è piena di mortifero veleno. ⁹ Con essa benediciamo il Signore e Padre; e con essa malediciamo gli uomini che son fatti a somiglianza di Dio. ¹⁰ Dalla medesima bocca procede benedizione e maledizione.

Vede quão grande bosque um tão pequeno fogo incendeia. ⁶ A língua também é um fogo; sim, a língua, qual mundo de iniquidade, colocada entre os nossos membros, contamina todo o corpo, e inflama o curso da natureza, sendo por sua vez inflamada pelo inferno. ⁷ Pois toda espécie tanto de feras, como de aves, tanto de répteis como de animais do mar, se doma, e tem sido domada pelo género humano, ⁸ mas a língua, nenhum homem a pode domar. É um mal irrefreável; está cheia de peçonha mortal. ⁹ Com ela bendizemos ao Senhor e Pai, e com ela amaldiçoamos os homens, feitos à semelhança de Deus. ¹⁰ Da mesma boca procede bênção e maldição. Não convém, meus irmãos, que se faça assim.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Mine brødre! ikke mange av eder bli lærere, eftersom I vet at vi skal få dess tungere dom! ² For vi snubler alle sammen i mange ting; den som ikke snubler i tale, han er en fullkommen mann, i stand til også å holde hele legemet i tømme. ³ Når vi legger bissel i munnen på hestene, forat de skal lyde oss, så styrer vi og hele deres legeme. ⁴ Se, også skibene, enda de er så store og drives av sterke vinder, styres dog av et lite ror dit styrmannen vil ha dem. ⁵ Så er og tungen et lite lem, og taler dog store ord. Se, en liten ild, hvor stor en skog den setter i brand! ⁶ Også tungen er en ild; som en verden av urettferdighet står tungen blandt våre lemmer; den smitter hele legemet og setter livets hjul i brand, og settes selv i brand av helvede. ⁷ For all natur, både i dyr og i fugler, både i ormer og i sjødyr, temmes og er blitt temmet av den menneskelige natur; ⁸ men tungen kan intet menneske temme, det ustyrlige onde, full av dødelig gift. ⁹ Med den velsigner vi Herren og Faderen, og med den forbanner vi menneskene, som er skapt efter Guds billede. ¹⁰ Av samme munn utgår velsignelse og forbannelse. Mine brødre! dette må ikke være så.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Fraţii mei, să nu fiţi mulţi învăţători, căci ştiţi că vom primi o judecată mai aspră. ² Toţi greşim în multe feluri. Dacă nu greşeşte cineva în vorbire, este un om desăvîrşit, şi poate să-şi ţină în frîu tot trupul. ³ De pildă, dacă punem cailor frîul în gură, ca să ne asculte, le cîrmuim tot trupul. ⁴ Iată, şi corăbiile, cît de mari sînt, şi, măcar că sînt mînate de vînturi iuţi, totuş sînt cîrmuite de o cîrmă foarte mică, după gustul cîrmaciului. ⁵ Tot aşa şi limba, este un mic mădular, şi se făleşte cu lucruri mari. Iată, un foc mic ce pădure mare aprinde! ⁶ Limba este şi ea un foc, este o lume de nelegiuiri. Ea este aceea dintre mădularele noastre, care întinează tot trupul şi aprinde roata vieţii, cînd este aprinsă de focul gheenei. ⁷ Toate soiurile de fiare, de păsări, de tîrîtoare, de vieţuitoare de mare se îmblînzesc, şi au fost îmblînzite de neamul omenesc, ⁸ dar limba niciun om n'o poate îmblînzi. Ea este un rău, care nu se poate înfrîna, este plină de o otravă de moarte. ⁹ Cu ea binecuvîntăm pe Domnul, şi Tatăl nostru, şi tot cu ea blestemăm pe oameni cari sînt făcuţi după asemănarea lui Dumnezeu. ¹⁰ Din aceeaş gură iese şi binecuvîntarea şi blestemul! Nu trebuie să fie aşa, fraţii mei!

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Не багато-хто ставайте, брати мої, учителями, знавши, що більший осуд приймемо. ² Бо багато ми всі помиляємось. Коли хто не помиляється в слові, то це муж досконалий, спроможний приборкувати й усе тіло. ³ От і коням вкладаєм уздечки до рота, щоб корилися нам, і ми всім їхнім тілом керуємо. ⁴ От і кораблі, хоч які величезні та гнані вітрами жорстокими, проте найменшим стерном скеровуються, куди хоче стерничий. ⁵ Так само й язик, малий член, але хвалиться вельми! Ось маленький огонь, а запалює величезного ліса! ⁶ І язик то огонь. Як світ неправости, поставлений так поміж нашими членами, язик сквернить усе тіло, запалює круг життя, і сам запалюється від геєнни. ⁷ Бо всяка природа звірів і пташок, гадів і морських потвор приборкується, і приборкана буде природою людською, ⁸ та не може ніхто із людей язика вгамувати, він зло безупинне, він повний отрути смертельної! ⁹ Ним ми благословляємо Бога й Отця, і ним проклинаєм людей, що створені на Божу подобу. ¹⁰ Із тих самих уст виходить благословення й прокляття. Не повинно, брати мої, щоб так це було!

UkrainianNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Не бувайте многі учителями, браттє моє, знаючи, що більший осуд приймемо. ² Багато бо грішимо всі. Коли хто в слові не грішить, се звершений чоловік, сильний обуздати і все тіло. ³ Ось бо і коням узди в роти вкладаємо, щоб слухали нас, і все тїло їх повертаємо. ⁴ Ось і кораблї, хоч які величезні, і страшенними вітрами носять ся, обертають ся малим стерном, куди воля стерника хоче. ⁵ Так само й язик - малий член, а вельми хвалить ся. Ось малий огонь, а які великі речі палить! ⁶ язик огонь, сьвіт неправди; так, язик стоїть між членами нашими, сквернячи все тіло, і палючи круг природи, а запалюючись од геєнни. ⁷ Всяка бо природа, зьвірей і птиць, гадів і морських (зьвірів) вгамовуєть ся і вгамовано природою чоловічою; ⁸ язика ж ніхто з людей не може вгамувати, без упину бо (се) зло, повне отрути смертоносної. ⁹ Ним благословляємо Бога і Отця, і ним кленем людей, що постали поподобию Божому. ¹⁰ Із тих же уст виходить благословеннє і проклін. Не подобає, браттє моє любе, сьому так бути.
