James 3:11

American King James Version (1999)

Does a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?

See the chapter Copy

As a fountain casts out her waters, so she casts out her wickedness: violence and spoil is heard in her; before me continually is grief and wounds.

Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not so to be.

Can the fig tree, my brothers, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
