James 3:1-2

KJV

NIV

1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
1 Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.
2 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.
2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
