| 3:1 | Many teachers become not, my brethren, having known that greater judgment we shall receive, |
| 3:2 | for we all make many stumbles; if any one in word doth not stumble, this one `is' a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body; |
| 3:3 | lo, the bits we put into the mouths of the horses for their obeying us, and their whole body we turn about; |
| 3:4 | lo, also the ships, being so great, and by fierce winds being driven, are led about by a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse of the helmsman doth counsel, |
| 3:5 | so also the tongue is a little member, and doth boast greatly; lo, a little fire how much wood it doth kindle! |
| 3:6 | and the tongue `is' a fire, the world of the unrighteousness, so the tongue is set in our members, which is spotting our whole body, and is setting on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by the gehenna. |
| 3:7 | For every nature, both of beasts and of fowls, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued, and hath been subdued, by the human nature, |
| 3:8 | and the tongue no one of men is able to subdue, `it is' an unruly evil, full of deadly poison, |
| 3:9 | with it we do bless the God and Father, and with it we do curse the men made according to the similitude of God; |
| 3:10 | out of the same mouth doth come forth blessing and cursing; it doth not need, my brethren, these things so to happen; |
| 3:11 | doth the fountain out of the same opening pour forth the sweet and the bitter? |
| 3:12 | is a fig-tree able, my brethren, olives to make? or a vine figs? so no fountain salt and sweet water `is able' to make. |
| 3:13 | Who `is' wise and intelligent among you? let him shew out of the good behaviour his works in meekness of wisdom, |
| 3:14 | and if bitter zeal ye have, and rivalry in your heart, glory not, nor lie against the truth; |
| 3:15 | this wisdom is not descending from above, but earthly, physical, demon-like, |
| 3:16 | for where zeal and rivalry `are', there is insurrection and every evil matter; |
| 3:17 | and the wisdom from above, first, indeed, is pure, then peaceable, gentle, easily entreated, full of kindness and good fruits, uncontentious, and unhypocritical: -- |
| 3:18 | and the fruit of the righteousness in peace is sown to those making peace. |
| 3:1 | My brethren be not every ma a master remembringe how that we shall receave the more damnacion: |
| 3:2 | for in many thinges we synne all. Yf a man synne not in worde the same is a parfecte ma and able to tame all the body. |
| 3:3 | Beholde we put bittes into ye horses mouthes that they shuld obeye vs and we turne aboute all the body. |
| 3:4 | Beholde also the shyppes which though they be so gret and are dryven of fearce windes yet are they turned about with a very smale helme whither soever the violence of the governer wyll. |
| 3:5 | Even so the tonge is a lyttell member and bosteth great thinges. Beholde how gret a thinge a lyttell fyre kyndleth |
| 3:6 | and the tonge is fyre and a worlde of wyckednes. So is the tonge set amonge oure members that it defileth the whole body and setteth a fyre all that we have of nature and is it selfe set a fyre even of hell. |
| 3:7 | All the natures of beastes and of byrdes and of serpentes and thinges of ye see are meked and tamed of the nature of man. |
| 3:8 | But the tonge can no man tame. Yt is an vntuely evyll full of deedly poyson. |
| 3:9 | Therwith blesse we God the father and therwith cursse we me which are made after the similitude of God. |
| 3:10 | Out of one mouth proceadeth blessynge and cursynge. My brethren these thinges ought not so to be. |
| 3:11 | Doth a fountayne sende forth at one place swete water and bytter also? |
| 3:12 | Can the fygge tree my Brethren beare olive beries: other a vyne beare fygges? |
| 3:13 | So can no fountayne geve bothe salt water and fresshe also. If eny man be wyse and endued with learnynge amonge you let him shewe the workes of his good conversacio in meknes that ys coupled with wisdome. |
| 3:14 | But Yf ye have bitter envyinge and stryfe in youre hertes reioyce not: nether be lyars agaynst the trueth. |
| 3:15 | This wisdome descedeth not from a boue: but is erthy and naturall and divelisshe. |
| 3:16 | For where envyinge and stryfe is there is stablenes and all maner of evyll workes. |
| 3:17 | But the wisdom that is from above is fyrst pure then peasable gentle and easy to be entreated full of mercy and good frutes without iudgynge and without simulacio: |
| 3:18 | yee and the frute of rightewesnes is sowen in peace of them that mayntene peace. |
| 3:1 | My brethre, be not euery man a master, remebrynge how that we shall receaue the more damnacion: |
| 3:2 | for in many thinges we synne all. Yf a man synne not in worde, the same is a parfecte man, & able to tame all the body. |
| 3:3 | Beholde, we put bittes into the horses mouthes yt they shulde obeye vs, and we turne aboute all the body. |
| 3:4 | Beholde also ye shyppes, which though they be so gret, and are dryuen of fearce windes, yet are they turned about with a very smale helme, whither soeuer the violence of the gouerner wyll. |
| 3:5 | Euen so the toge is a lyttell member, and bosteth great thinges. Beholde how gret a thinge a lyttell fyre kyndleth, |
| 3:6 | and the tonge is fyre, and a worlde of wyckednes. So is the tonge set amonge oure membres, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth a fyre all that we haue of nature, and is it selfe set a fyre euen of hell. |
| 3:7 | All the natures of beastes, and of byrdes, and of serpentes, and thinges of the see, are meked and tamed of the nature of ma. |
| 3:8 | But the toge can no man tame. Yt is an vnruely euell full of deedly poysou. |
| 3:9 | Therwith blesse we God the father, and therwith cursse we men which are made after the similitude of God. |
| 3:10 | Out of one mouth proceadeth blessynge and cursynge. My brethre these thinges ought not so to be. |
| 3:11 | Doth a fountayne sende forth at one place swete water and bytter also? |
| 3:12 | Can the fygge tree, my Brethren, beare oliue beries: ether a vyne beare fygges? |
| 3:13 | So can no fountayne geue bothe salt water and fresshe also. If eny man be wyse and endued with learnynge amonge you, let him shewe the workes of his good couersacion in meknes that is coupled with wissdome. |
| 3:14 | But yf ye haue bitter enuyenge and stryfe in yor hertes, reioyce not: nether be lyars agaynst the trueth. |
| 3:15 | This wissdome descendeth not from aboue: but is erthy, and naturall, and dyuelishe. |
| 3:16 | For where enuyenge and stryfe is, there is vnstablenes and all maner of euell workes. |
| 3:17 | But the wissdom that is fro aboue, is fyrst pure, the peasable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good frutes, without iudgynge, and without simulacion: |
| 3:18 | yee, and the frute of rightewesnes is sowen in peace, of the that mayntene peace. |
