9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made ain the similitude of God.
10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.
11 Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?
12 Can a afig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs?1 Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.

13 aWho is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.
