'Tongue' in the Bible

And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;

And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.

And straight away his mouth was open and his tongue was free and he gave praise to God.

And he gave a cry and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may put the end of his finger in water and put it on my tongue, for I am cruelly burning in this flame.

And for this cause my heart was glad and my tongue full of joy, and my flesh will be resting in hope:

For it is said in the holy Writings, By my life, says the Lord, to me every knee will be bent, and every tongue will give worship to God.

So if you, in using a strange tongue, say words which have no sense, how will anyone take in what you are saying? for you will be talking to the air.

But in the church it would be better for me to make use of five words of which the sense was clear, so that others might have profit, than ten thousand words in a strange tongue.

What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.

If any man makes use of a tongue, let it not be more than two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let someone give the sense:

And that every tongue may give witness that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

If a man seems to have religion and has no control over his tongue but lets himself be tricked by what is false, this man's religion is of no value.

Even so the tongue is a small part of the body, but it takes credit for great things. How much wood may be lighted by a very little fire!

And the tongue is a fire; it is the power of evil placed in our bodies, making all the body unclean, putting the wheel of life on fire, and getting its fire from hell.

But the tongue may not be controlled by man; it is an unresting evil, it is full of the poison of death.

For it is said, Let the man who has a love of life, desiring to see good days, keep his tongue from evil and his lips from words of deceit:

My little children, do not let our love be in word and in tongue, but let it be in act and in good faith.
