Key: (H)ub (G)ateway (S)trong's New Defender's Other |

1 | My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. | H · G · S masters greater condemnation |
2 | For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. | H · G · S |
3 | Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. | H · G · S |
4 | Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. | H · G · S |
5 | Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! | H · G · S great things |
6 | And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. | H · G · S fire of hell tongue is a fire |
7 | For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: | H · G · S |
8 | But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. | H · G · S |
9 | Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. | H · G · S similitude of God |
10 | Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. | H · G · S |
11 | Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? | H · G · S |
12 | Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh. | H · G · S either a vine, figs |
13 | Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. | H · G · S conversation |
14 | But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. | H · G · S |
15 | This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. | H · G · S earthly, sensual, devilish |
16 | For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. | H · G · S |
17 | But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. | H · G · S from above |
18 |
And the fruit of
righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
|
H · G · S |
