James 3:4-6

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴ Also, behold the ships. Though they are so great and are driven by fierce winds, they are still directed with a very small rudder, wherever the helmsman wishes.

⁵ Even so the tongue is a small member and boasts of great things. Behold how great a thing a little fire kindles.

⁶ And the tongue is fire, a world of wickedness. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body and sets on fire the course of nature. And it is set on fire by hell.
