야고보서 3장 8 ~ 12절

야고보서 3장 8 ~ 12절

혀는 길들일 사람이 없나니 쉬지 아니하는 악이요 죽이는 독이 가득한 것이라

이것으로 우리가 주 아버지를 찬송하고 또 이것으로 하나님의 형상대로 지음을 받은 사람을 저주하나니

한 입으로 찬송과 저주가 나는도다 내 형제들아 이것이 마땅치 아니하니라

샘이 한 구멍으로 어찌 단 물과 쓴 물을 내겠느뇨

내 형제들아 어찌 무화과나무가 감람 열매를 포도나무가 무화과를 맺겠느뇨 이와 같이 짠 물이 단 물을 내지 못하느니라

JAMES 3 : 8 ~ 12

NIV:
but no man can tame the tongue. It it a restless evil, full of deadly poison.

With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness.

Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.

Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?

My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.

CEV:
But our tongues get out of control. They are restless and evil, and always spreading deadly poison.

My dear friends, with our togues we speak both praises and curses. We praise our Lord and Father, and we curse people who were created to be like God, and this isn't right.

Can clean water and dirty water both flow from the same spring?

Can a fig tree produce olives or a grapevine produce figs? Does fresh water come from a well full of salt water?
