6. And the lashon is an Eish, the lashon is made an Olam HaAvel (World of Iniquity) among our evarim (members), defiling with a stain kol haGuf (whole body), and setting ablaze the course of life, and is itself set by eish in Gehinnom. [MISHLE 16:27]
7. For every species both of wild animals and birds, reptiles and marine creatures is tamed and has been tamed by humankind.
8. But the Lashon no one of Bnei Adam is able to tame, an uncontrollable ra'ah (evil), full of deadly zuhamah (contamination).
9. With this we say a bracha to Hashem, Adoneinu and Avoteynu, and with this we put a kelalah (curse) on Bnei Adam, who have been created according to the demut Elohim [Gn 1:26,27).
10. Out of the same PEH comes forth bracha and also kelalah. My Achim b'Moshiach, these things ought not to be.
11. Surely not out of the same makor (fountain) pours forth mayim both sweet and bitter?
