James 3:5-8

Noyes(i) 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.
