James 3:13-17

WNT(i) 13 Which of you is a wise and well-instructed man? Let him prove it by a right life with conduct guided by a wisely teachable spirit. 14 But if in your hearts you have bitter feelings of envy and rivalry, do not speak boastfully and falsely, in defiance of the truth. 15 That is not the wisdom which comes down from above: it belongs to earth, to the unspiritual nature, and to evil spirits. 16 For where envy and rivalry are, there also are unrest and every vile deed. 17 The wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceful, courteous, not self-willed, full of compassion and kind actions, free from favouritism and from all insincerity.
