6. Formal Translation The tongue is fire; it is a world of unrighteousness. Set among our members, it stains the whole body and sets on fire the whole course of life; and it is itself set on fire by hell. |
6. Dynamic Translation The tongue is like a fire, carrying a whole world of injustice. It sits within our bodies, corrupting the whole person and burning through the entire course; and it is set ablaze by hell. |
