2nd March
For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind.But no man can tame the tongue.
It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who have been made in the similitude of God.
Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing.
My brethren, these things ought not to be so.
Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?
Can a fig tree my brethren bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs?
Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.
