James 3:5

NCV

NIV

5 It is the same with the tongue. It is a small part of the body, but it brags about great things. A big forest fire can be started with only a little flame.
5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.
