Job 15:13
English Standard Version
13 that you turn your (A)spirit against God
and bring such words out of your mouth?
James 3:2-6
English Standard Version
2 For (A)we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, (B)he is a perfect man, (C)able also to bridle his whole body. 3 If we put (D)bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. 4 Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. 5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet (E)it boasts of great things.
How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6 And (F)the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, (G)staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life,[a] and set on fire by hell.[b]
