James 3:7-9

The Voice

⁷ Humanity is capable of taming every bird and beast in existence, even reptiles and sea creatures great and small. ⁸ But no man has ever demonstrated the ability to tame his own tongue! It is a spring of restless evil, brimming with toxic poisons. ⁹ Ironically this same tongue can be both an instrument of blessing to our Lord and Father and a weapon that hurls curses upon others who are created in God’s own image.
