James 1:19-20
J.B. Phillips New Testament
Hear God’s Word and put it into practice: that is real religion
19-20 In view of what he has made us then, dear brothers, let every man be quick to listen but slow to use his tongue, and slow to lose his temper. For man’s temper is never the means of achieving God’s true goodness.
