James 3:8-10

8 But no one * can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of 1deadly poison.
9 With it we bless 2our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, 3who have been made in the likeness of God;
10 from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.
