My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.

Verse 1 is found in chapter 3 of James. James especially warns those who desire to teach because speech has the ability to influence others deeply. The tongue, although small, can direct or destroy, much like a bit controls a horse or a rudder directs a ship.

Liebe Brüder, unterwinde sich nicht jedermann, Lehrer zu sein, und wisset, daß wir desto mehr Urteil empfangen werden.
Hermanos míos, no os hagáis muchos maestros, sabiendo que recibiremos mayor condenación.
Hermanos míos, que no se hagan maestros muchos de ustedes, sabiendo que recibiremos un juicio más severo.
Mes frères, qu'il n'y ait pas parmi vous un grand nombre de personnes qui se mettent à enseigner, car vous savez que nous serons jugés plus sévèrement.
FRATELLI miei, non siate molti maestri; sapendo che noi ne riceveremo maggior condannazione.
MEUS irmãos, muitos de vós não sejam mestres, sabendo que receberemos mais duro juízo.
我的弟兄們,不要許多人做教師,因為你們知道,我們做教師的要接受更嚴厲的審判。
