James 3:5-6

5So also the tongue is a small member, yet ait boasts of great things.

How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6And bthe tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, cstaining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, ▼
▼Or wheel of birth
 and set on fire by hell. ▼
▼Greek Gehenna

James 3:14-16

14But if you have bitter fjealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15This is not gthe wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, hdemonic. 16For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.
