Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
Many
teachers
become
not,
my brethren, having
known
that greater
judgment
we shall receive ,
My brethren, be
not
many
masters,
knowing
that we shall receive the
greater
condemnation.
for we all make
many
stumbles;
if any one
in word doth
not
stumble
, this
one
`
is '
a perfect man, able to bridle also
the whole body ;
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 .
lo
, the
bits
we put into
the
mouths
of
the horses for
their
obeying
us
, and their
whole
body
we turn about ;
Behold
, we put bits
in
the horses '
mouths
, that
they
may
obey
us;
and we turn about their
whole
body.
lo,
also the ships, being
so great, and by
fierce winds being
driven
, are led
about by
a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse
of
the
helmsman
doth
counsel,
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.
so also
the tongue is a little member, and doth
boast
greatly;
lo
, a little fire how
much
wood
it
doth
kindle
!
Even
so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth
great
things.
Behold
, how
great
a matter
a
little fire kindleth
!
and the tongue `
is '
a fire, the
world of the
unrighteousness,
so the tongue is
set
in
our members, which
is
spotting
our
whole body, and is
setting
on fire the course of nature ,
and is set on fire by
the
gehenna
.
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
.
For every nature,
both
of beasts and of fowls
, both
of creeping
things
and things
of the sea, is subdued
, and hath been subdued,
by
the
human
nature,
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:
and
the tongue no one
of
men
is
able
to
subdue,
`
it is '
an unruly evil, full of deadly poison ,
But
the tongue can
no man
tame;
it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison .
with
it
we
do
bless the
God and
Father
, and with
it
we
do
curse the
men made according
to
the similitude of God ;
Therewith
bless we
God, even
the
Father;
and therewith
curse we
men ,
which
are
made after
the similitude of God .
out of the same mouth doth
come
forth
blessing and cursing ;
it
doth
not
need,
my brethren, these things so to happen;
Out of the same mouth proceedeth
blessing and cursing .
My brethren, these things ought
not
so to be.
doth the
fountain out
of
the
same
opening
pour
forth the sweet and the
bitter?
Doth a
fountain send
forth at
the same
place
sweet water
and bitter?
is
a
fig -
tree able
, my brethren, olives
to
make
? or
a vine figs? so no fountain salt and
sweet
water `is
able'
to
make
.
Can
the
fig tree, my brethren, bear
olive
berries
? either
a vine ,
figs? so can
no fountain both
yield
salt water and
fresh
.
Who `
is '
wise and intelligent
among you? let him shew out of the
good behaviour
his works in
meekness of 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 .
and
if bitter
zeal
ye have ,
and rivalry
in your heart
, glory not, nor
lie against the truth ;
But
if ye have bitter
envying
and strife
in your hearts
, glory not, and
lie not
against the truth .
this wisdom is
not descending
from above, but earthly, physical,
demon-like
,
This wisdom descendeth
not from above, but is
earthly, sensual
, devilish.
for where zeal
and rivalry
`are'
, there is insurrection
and every evil matter;
For where envying
and strife
is
, there is confusion
and every evil work.
and
the wisdom from above ,
first,
indeed,
is pure, then peaceable, gentle, easily
entreated
, full of kindness
and good fruits, uncontentious
, and unhypocritical:
--
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.
and the fruit of the
righteousness in
peace
is sown to
those
making
peace.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in
peace of
them
that
make
peace
.
