James 3:5-6
5So also the tongue is a small member, yet cit boasts of great things.How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6And dthe tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, estaining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, ▼
▼Or wheel of birth
and set on fire by hell. ▼▼Greek Gehenna
