TSK · James 1:26

That against God thou turnest thy spirit, And lettest words go out of thy mouth?

Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, [Else] they will not come near unto thee.

[For the Chief Musician, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David]. I said, I will take heed to my ways, That I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, While the wicked is before me.

In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; But he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth; But the soul of the treacherous [shall eat] violence.

The tongue of the wise uttereth knowledge aright; But the mouth of fools poureth out folly.

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.

There is that coveteth greedily all the day long; But the righteous giveth and withholdeth not.

He feedeth on ashes; a deceived heart hath turned him aside; and he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

But in vain do they worship me, Teaching [as their] doctrines the precepts of men.

Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he thinketh he hath.

by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.

But from those who were reputed to be somewhat (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth not man's person)--they, I say, who were of repute imparted nothing to me:

Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.

Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear.

Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer each one.

But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves.

For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.
