WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 My brothers, not many of you should choose to become teachers, knowing that you shall receive a stricter judgment.
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 For we all offend in many ways. If anyone does not offend in word, he is a perfect man. And he is then able, as if with a bridle, to lead the whole body around.
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 For so we put bridles into the mouths of horses, in order to submit them to our will, and so we turn their whole body around.
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 Consider also the ships, which, though they are great and may be driven by strong winds, yet they are turned around with a small rudder, to be directed to wherever the strength of the pilot might will.
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 So also the tongue certainly is a small part, but it moves great things. Consider that a small fire can set ablaze a great forest.
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 And so the tongue is like a fire, comprising all iniquity. The tongue, stationed in the midst of our body, can defile the entire body and inflame the wheel of our nativity, setting a fire from Hell.
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 For the nature of all beasts and birds and serpents and others is ruled over, and has been ruled over, by human nature.
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 But no man is able to rule over the tongue, a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
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 By it we bless God the Father, and by it we speak evil of men, who have been made in the likeness of God.
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 From the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so!
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 Does a fountain emit, out of the same opening, both sweet and bitter water?
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 My brothers, can the fig tree yield grapes? Or the vine, figs? Then neither is salt water able to produce fresh water.
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 Who is wise and well-taught among you? Let him show, by means of good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom.
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 But if you hold a bitter zeal, and if there is contention in your hearts, then do not boast and do not be liars against the truth.
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 For this is not wisdom, descending from above, but rather it is earthly, beastly, and diabolical.
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 For wherever envy and contention is, there too is inconstancy and every depraved work.
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 But within the wisdom that is from above, certainly, chastity is first, and next peacefulness, meekness, openness, consenting to what is good, a plenitude of mercy and good fruits, not judging, without falseness.
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 And so the fruit of justice is sown in peace by those who make peace.
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.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
"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.
