5Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! 6And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it sitteth; and it is set on fire of hell. 7For every king of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind. 8But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9Therewith bless we God even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. 10Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. James 3:5-10
