절	Good News Translation (1992)	King James Version
1	The Tongue My friends, not many of you should become teachers. As you know, we teachers will be judged with greater strictness than others.	My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
2	All of us often make mistakes. But if a person never makes a mistake in what he says, he is perfect and is also able to control his whole being.	For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.
3	We put a bit into the mouth of a horse to make it obey us, and we are able to make it go where we want.	Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.
4	Or think of a ship: big as it is and driven by such strong winds, it can be steered by a very small rudder, and it goes wherever the pilot wants it to go.	Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.
5	So it is with the tongue: small as it is, it can boast about great things. Just think how large a forest can be set on fire by a tiny flame!	Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
6	And the tongue is like a fire. It is a world of wrong, occupying its place in our bodies and spreading evil through our whole being. It sets on fire the entire course of our existence with the fire that comes to it from hell itself.	And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
7	We humans are able to tame and have tamed all other creatures—wild animals and birds, reptiles and fish.	For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
8	But no one has ever been able to tame the tongue. It is evil and uncontrollable, full of deadly poison.	But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
9	We use it to give thanks to our Lord and Father and also to curse other people, who are created in the likeness of God.	Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
10	Words of thanksgiving and cursing pour out from the same mouth. My friends, this should not happen!	Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
11	No spring of water pours out sweet water and bitter water from the same opening.	Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
12	A fig tree, my friends, cannot bear olives; a grapevine cannot bear figs, nor can a salty spring produce sweet water.	Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
13	The Wisdom from Above Are there any of you who are wise and understanding? You are to prove it by your good life, by your good deeds performed with humility and wisdom.	Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
14	But if in your heart you are jealous, bitter, and selfish, don't sin against the truth by boasting of your wisdom.	But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15	Such wisdom does not come down from heaven; it belongs to the world, it is unspiritual and demonic.	This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16	Where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is also disorder and every kind of evil.	For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
17	But the wisdom from above is pure first of all; it is also peaceful, gentle, and friendly; it is full of compassion and produces a harvest of good deeds; it is free from prejudice and hypocrisy.	But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18	And goodness is the harvest that is produced from the seeds the peacemakers plant in peace.	And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
