Yakobus 3:4-5

3:4 Look at ships too: Though they are so large and driven by harsh winds, they are steered by a tiny rudder wherever the pilot’s inclination directs. 3:5 So too the tongue is a small part of the body, ¹  yet it has great pretensions. ²  Think ³  how small a flame sets a huge forest ablaze.

[3:5]  ¹ tn Grk “a small member.”

[3:5]  ² tn Grk “boasts of great things.”

[3:5]  ³ tn Grk “Behold.”
