James 3
1 not much teacher to be brother me to know that/since: that great judgment to take
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.
2 much for to stumble all if one in/on/among word no to stumble this/he/she/it perfect man able to bridle and all the/this/who body
For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in words, he is a perfect man, able to control even his whole body.

Now if we put bits into horses' mouths for them to obey us, we can also direct their whole bodies.

Notice also that ships, although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, are steered by a very small rudder to wherever the pilot desires.
5 thus(-ly) and the/this/who tongue small member to be and great to boast look! (how great? *N(k)O*) fire how great? forest to set fire
Likewise the tongue is a small body part, yet it boasts great things. Notice also how small a fire sets on fire a large forest.
6 and the/this/who tongue fire the/this/who world the/this/who unrighteousness (thus(-ly) *k*) the/this/who tongue to appoint/conduct in/on/among the/this/who member me the/this/who to stain all the/this/who body and to kindle the/this/who course/wheel the/this/who origin and to kindle by/under: by the/this/who hell: Gehenna (Geenna g1067)
The tongue is also a fire, a world of sinfulness set among our body parts. It stains the whole body and sets on fire the course of life. It is itself set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
7 all for nature wild animal and/both and bird reptile and/both and marine to tame and to tame the/this/who nature the/this/who human
For every kind of wild animal, bird, reptile, and sea creature is being tamed and has been tamed by mankind.
8 the/this/who then tongue none to tame be able a human (restless *N(k)O*) evil/harm: evil full poison/rust deadly
But no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 in/on/among it/s/he to praise/bless the/this/who (lord: God *N(K)O*) and father and in/on/among it/s/he to curse the/this/who a human the/this/who according to likeness God to be
With it we praise the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness.
10 out from the/this/who it/s/he mouth to go out praise and curse no to ought/need brother me this/he/she/it thus(-ly) to be
Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things should not happen.
11 surely not the/this/who flow out from the/this/who it/s/he hole to pour the/this/who sweet and the/this/who bitter
Does a spring pour out from its opening both sweet and bitter water?
12 not be able brother me fig tree olive tree to do/make: do or vine fig (thus(-ly) *k*) (neither *N(k)O*) (flow *K*) salty (and *k*) sweet to do/make: do water
Does a fig tree, my brothers, make olives? Or a grapevine, figs? Neither can salty water produce sweet water.
13 which? wise and knowing in/on/among you to show out from the/this/who good behaviour the/this/who work it/s/he in/on/among gentleness wisdom
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let that person show a good life by his works in the humility of wisdom.
14 if then zeal bitter to have/be and rivalry in/on/among the/this/who heart you not to boast and to lie according to the/this/who truth
But if you have bitter jealousy and ambition in your heart, do not boast and lie against the truth.
15 no to be this/he/she/it the/this/who wisdom from above/again to descend but earthly natural demonic
This is not the wisdom that comes down from above. Instead, it is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.
16 where(-ever) for zeal and rivalry there disorder and all evil thing
For where there are jealousy and ambition, there is confusion and every evil practice.
17 the/this/who then from above/again wisdom first on the other hand pure to be then peaceful gentle compliant full mercy and fruit good impartial (and *k*) genuine
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.
18 fruit then (the/this/who *k*) righteousness in/on/among peace to sow the/this/who to do/make: do peace
The fruit of righteousness is sown in peace among those who make peace.
