James 3:9 BBE

⁷  For every sort of beast and bird and every living thing on earth and in the sea has been controlled by man and is under his authority;

⁸  But the tongue may not be controlled by man; it is an unresting evil, it is full of the poison of death.

⁹  With it we give praise to our Lord and Father; and with it we put a curse on men who are made in God's image.

¹⁰  Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not right for these things to be so.

¹¹  Does the fountain send from the same outlet sweet and bitter water?
