1 Ne tražite, braćo moja, da budete mnogi učitelji, znajući da ćemo većma biti osuđeni,
1 HERMANOS míos, no os hagáis muchos maestros, sabiendo que recibiremos mayor condenación.
1 Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
2 jer svi pogrešujemo mnogo puta. Ali ko u reči ne pogrešuje, onaj je savršen čovek, može zauzdati i sve telo.
2 Porque todos ofendemos en muchas cosas. Si alguno no ofende en palabra, éste es varón perfecto, que también puede con freno gobernar todo el cuerpo.
2 For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
3 Jer gle, i konjima mećemo žvale u usta da nam se pokoravaju, i sve telo njihovo okrećemo.
3 He aquí nosotros ponemos frenos en las bocas de los caballos para que nos obedezcan, y gobernamos todo su cuerpo.
3 Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.
4 Gle i lađe, ako su i velike i silni ih vetrovi gone, okreću se malom krmicom kuda hoće onaj koji upravlja.
4 Mirad también las naves: aunque tan grandes, y llevadas de impetuosos vientos, son gobernadas con un muy pequeño timón por donde quisiere el que las gobierna.
4 Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
5 A tako je i jezik mali ud, i mnogo čini. Gle, mala vatra, i kolike velike šume sažeže.
5 Así también, la lengua es un miembro pequeño, y se gloría de grandes cosas. He aquí, un pequeño fuego ¡cuán grande bosque enciende!
5 So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
6 I jezik je vatra, svet put nepravde. Tako i jezik živi među našim udima, poganeći sve telo, i paleći vreme života našeg, i zapaljujući se od pakla.
6 Y la lengua es un fuego, un mundo de maldad. Así la lengua está puesta entre nuestros miembros, la cual contamina todo el cuerpo, é inflama la rueda de la creación, y es inflamada del infierno.
6 And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.
7 Jer sav rod zverinja i ptica, i bubina i riba, pripitomljava se i pripitomio se rodu čovečijem;
7 Porque toda naturaleza de bestias, y de aves, y de serpientes, y de seres de la mar, se doma y es domada de la naturaleza humana:
7 For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
8 a jezik niko od ljudi ne može pripitomiti, jer je nemirno zlo, puno jeda smrtonosnoga.
8 Pero ningún hombre puede domar la lengua, [que es] un mal que no puede ser refrenado; llena de veneno mortal.
8 but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9 Njime blagosiljamo Boga i Oca, i njime kunemo ljude, koji su stvoreni po obličju Božijem.
9 Con ella bendecimos al Dios y Padre, y con ella maldecimos á los hombres, los cuales son hechos á la semejanza de Dios.
9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
10 Iz jednih usta izlazi blagoslov i kletva. Ne valja, ljubazna braćo moja, da ovo tako biva.
10 De una misma boca proceden bendición y maldición. Hermanos míos, no conviene que estas cosas sean así hechas.
10 Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11 Eda li može izvor iz jedne glave točiti slatko i gorko?
11 ¿Echa alguna fuente por una misma abertura agua dulce y amarga?
11 Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
12 Može li, braćo moja, smokva masline rađati ili vinova loza smokve? Tako nijedan izvor ne daje slane i slatke vode.
12 Hermanos míos, ¿puede la higuera producir aceitunas, ó la vid higos? Así ninguna fuente puede hacer agua salada y dulce.
12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
13 Ko je među vama mudar i pametan neka pokaže od dobrog življenja dela svoja u krotosti i premudrosti.
13 ¿Quién es sabio y avisado entre vosotros? muestre por buena conversación sus obras en mansedumbre de sabiduría.
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
14 Ako li imate gorku zavist i svađu u srcima svojim, ne hvalite se, ni lažite na istinu.
14 Pero si tenéis envidia amarga y contención en vuestros corazones, no os gloriéis, ni seáis mentirosos contra la verdad:
14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.
15 Ovo nije ona premudrost što silazi odozgo, nego zemaljska, ljudska, đavolska.
15 Que esta sabiduría no es la que desciende de lo alto, sino terrena, animal, diabólica.
15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
16 Jer gde je zavist i svađa onde je nesloga i svaka zla stvar.
16 Porque donde hay envidia y contención, allí hay perturbación y toda obra perversa.
16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
17 A koja je premudrost odozgo ona je najpre čista, a potom mirna, krotka, pokorna, puna milosti i dobrih plodova, bez hatera, i nelicemerna.
17 Mas la sabiduría que es de lo alto, primeramente es pura, después pacífica, modesta, benigna, llena de misericordia y de buenos frutos, no juzgadora, no fingida.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 A plod pravde u miru seje se onima koji mir čine.
18 Y el fruto de justicia se siembra en paz para aquellos que hacen paz.
18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
"I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?" At times I read and hear: "My brethren, be not many masters, seeing that ye shall receive the greater condemnation: for in many things we offend all." "I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?" But see, I rise and open.
