| 1 | Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment. | Mal 2:12 Mt 9:11 Mt 10:24 Mt 23:8-10 Mt 23:14-10 Jn 3:10 Ac 13:1 Ro 2:20 Ro 2:21 1Co 12:28 Eph 4:11 1Ti 2:7 2Ti 1:11 1Pe 5:3 |
| 2 | For in many things we all stumble. If anyone doesn`t stumble in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also. | 1Ki 8:46 2Ch 6:36 Pr 20:9 Ec 7:20 Isa 64:6 Ro 3:10 Ro 7:21 Ga 3:22 Ga 5:17 1Jn 1:8-10 |
| 3 | Indeed, we put bits into the horses` mouths so that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body. | Jm 1:26 2Ki 19:28 Ps 32:9 Ps 39:1 Isa 37:29 |
| 4 | Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires. | Ps 107:25-27 Jon 1:4 Mt 8:24 Ac 27:14-38 |
| 5 | So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire! | Ex 5:2 Ex 15:9 2Ki 19:22-24 Jb 21:14 Jb 21:15 Jb 22:17 Ps 10:3 Ps 12:2-4 Ps 17:10 Ps 52:1 Ps 52:2 Ps 73:8 Ps 73:9 Pr 12:18 Pr 15:2 Pr 18:21 Jer 9:3-8 Jer 18:18 Ezk 28:2 Ezk 29:3 Dn 3:15 Dn 4:30 2Pe 2:18 Jud 1:16 Rev 13:5 Rev 13:6 |
| 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. | Jg 12:4-6 2Sa 19:43 2Sa 20:1 2Ch 10:13-16 2Ch 13:17 Ps 64:3 Ps 140:3 Pr 15:1 Pr 16:27 Pr 26:20 Pr 26:21 Isa 30:27 |
| 7 | For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and thing in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind. | Mk 5:4 |
| 8 | But nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. | Jm 3:6 Ps 55:21 Ps 57:4 Ps 59:7 Ps 64:3 Ps 64:4 |
| 9 | With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the image of God. | Ps 16:9 Ps 30:12 Ps 35:28 Ps 51:14 Ps 57:8 Ps 62:4 Ps 71:24 Ps 108:1 Ac 2:26 |
| 10 | Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. | Ps 50:16-20 Jer 7:4-10 Mic 3:11 Ro 12:14 1Pe 3:9 |
| 11 | Does a spring send forth from the same opening fresh and bitter water? | Jm 3:11 |
| 12 | Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water. | Isa 5:2-4 Jer 2:21 Mt 7:16-20 Mt 12:33 Lk 6:43 Lk 6:44 Ro 11:16-18 |
| 13 | Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show his deeds done in gentleness of wisdom by his good life. | Jm 3:1 Ps 107:43 Ec 8:1 Ec 8:5 Jer 9:12 Jer 9:23 Mt 7:24 1Co 6:5 Ga 6:4 |
| 14 | But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don`t boast and don`t lie against the truth. | Jm 3:16 Jm 4:1-5 Gn 30:1 Gn 30:2 Gn 37:11 Jb 5:2 Pr 14:30 Pr 27:4 Isa 11:13 Hab 1:3 Mt 27:18 Ac 5:17 Ac 7:9 Ac 13:45 Ro 1:29 Ro 13:13 1Co 3:3 1Co 13:4 2Co 12:20 Ga 5:15 Ga 5:21 Ga 5:26 Php 1:15 Php 2:3 1Ti 6:4 Tit 3:3 1Pe 2:1 1Pe 2:2 |
| 15 | This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. | Jm 3:17 Jm 1:5 Jm 1:17 Jn 3:17 1Co 3:3 Php 3:19 |
| 16 | For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed. | Jm 3:14 1Co 3:3 Ga 5:20 |
| 17 | But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. | Jm 3:15 Jm 1:5 Jm 1:17 Gn 41:38 Gn 41:39 Ex 36:2 1Ki 3:9 1Ki 3:12 1Ki 3:28 1Ch 22:12 Jb 28:12 Jb 28:23 Jb 28:28 Pr 2:6 Isa 11:2 Isa 11:3 Dn 1:17 Lk 21:15 1Co 2:6 1Co 2:7 1Co 12:8 |
| 18 | Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. | Jm 1:20 Pr 11:18 Pr 11:28 Pr 11:30 Isa 32:16 Isa 32:17 Hos 10:12 Mt 5:9 Jn 4:36 Php 1:11 Heb 12:11 |
