James 3:5 WEB

³  Indeed, we put bits into the horses' mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.

⁴  Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.

⁵  So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!

⁶  And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.{Gehenna is a name that describes a burning Hell with rotting bodies and unclean things in it}

⁷  For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and thing in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.
