    James 3

    1 My brethren, be not many masters, (Matthew 23:10) knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.KJRV — James 3:1

    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.KJRV — James 3:2

    3 Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.KJRV — James 3:3

    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.KJRV — James 3:4

    5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!KJRV — James 3:5

    6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue (Matthew 15:18) among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. (Matthew 5:22; Matthew 5:29; Matthew 5:30; Matthew 10:28; Matthew 18:9; Matthew 23:15; Matthew 23:33; Mark 9:43; Luke 12:5)KJRV — James 3:6

    7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, (Genesis 9:2; Hosea 2:18) and hath been tamed of mankind:KJRV — James 3:7

    8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.KJRV — James 3:8

    9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude (Genesis 1:27; 1 Corinthians 11:7; Ephesians 4:24; Colossians 3:10) of God.KJRV — James 3:9

    10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.KJRV — James 3:10

    11 Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?KJRV — James 3:11

    12 Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.KJRV — James 3:12

    13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.KJRV — James 3:13

    14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.KJRV — James 3:14

    15 This wisdom (1 Corinthians 2:6) descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.KJRV — James 3:15

    16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.KJRV — James 3:16

    17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.KJRV — James 3:17

    18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.KJRV — James 3:18
