James 3:4 in different translations

Czech

BKR An i lodí tak veliké jsouce a prudkými větry hnány bývajíce, však i nejmenším veslem bývají sem i tam obracíny, kamžkoli líbí se tomu, kdož je spravuje.

SNC Nebo taková loď: i když je velká a žene ji silný vítr, kormidelník ji ovládá malým kormidlem.
