Psalms 141:3
Lord, set up a guard for my mouth; keep watch at the door of my lips.
-
James 3:5-10
So too, though the tongue is a small part of the body, it boasts great things. Consider how large a forest a small fire ignites.And the tongue is a fire. The tongue, a world of unrighteousness, is placed among the parts of our bodies. It pollutes the whole body, sets the course of life on fire, and is set on fire by hell.Every sea creature, reptile, bird, or animal is tamed and has been tamed by man,but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.We praise our Lord and Father with it, and we curse men who are made in God’s likeness with it.Praising and cursing come out of the same mouth. My brothers, these things should not be this way.
