James 3:1-3

Jubilee Bible 2000

3 ¶ 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.
