Chap. III.
Against proud Maisters and authors of Sectes. 5 Of the manifold sinnes of the vnbrideled
tongue. 13 The difference betvvixt proud, c&obar;tentious, and vvorldly vvisedom,
and that vvisedom vvhich is heauenly, peaceable, modest, and so forth.
1 noteBe yee not09Q1427 many maisters my brethren,
knovving that you receiue
the greater iudgement,
2 For in many
things vve offend al. noteIf any man
offend not in vvord: this is a perfect
man. he is able also vvith bridle to
turne about the whole body.
3 And
if vve put bittes into the mouthes of
horses that they may obey vs, vve
turne about al their body also.
4 And behold, the shippes,
vvhereas they be great, and are driuen of strong vvindes: yet
-- --
are they turned about vvith a litle sterne whither the viol&ebar;ce
of the director vvil.
5 So the tongue also is certes a litle m&ebar;ber,
& note vaunteth great things. Behold hovv note much fire what
a great vvood it kindleth?
6 And the tongue, is fire, a vvhole
vvorld of iniquitie. The tongue is set amoug our members,
vvhich defileth the vvhole bodie, & inflameth the vvheele of
our natiuitie, inflamed of hel.
7 For al nature of beastes & foules
and serpents & of the rest is tamed & hath been tamed by
the nature of man.
8 but the tongue no man can tame, an vnquiet
euil, ful of deadly poison.
9 By it vve blesse God & the
Father: & by it vve curse men vvhich are made after the similitude
of God.
10 Out of the self same mouth procedeth blessing
& cursing. These things must not be so done my brethr&ebar;.
11 Doth the fountaine giue forth out of one hole svveete &
soure water?
12 Can, my brethren, the figge tree yeld grapes:
or the vine, figges? So neither note can the salt water yeld sweete.
13 Vvho is vvise and hath knowledge among you? Let him
shevv by good conuersation his vvorking in mildenesse of
vvisedom.
14 But if you haue bitter zeale, and there be contentions
in your hartes: glorie not and be not liers against
the truth.
15 for this is not note vvisedom descending from
aboue: but earthly, sensual, diuelish.
16 For vvhere zeale and
contention is: there is inconstancie, and euery peruerse
vvorke.
17 But the vvisedom that is from aboue, first certes is
chast: then peaceable, modest, suasible, c&obar;senting to the good,
ful of mercie and good fruites, not iudging, vvithout simulation.
18 And the fruite of iustice, in peace is sovved, to them
that make peace.
