Bible verses about "envy" | AUV

²⁰ And He said, “Whatever proceeds out of a man’s life is what [spiritually] corrupts him. ²¹ For from within, out of people’s hearts, proceed evil thoughts, sexual immorality, stealing, murder, extramarital affairs, ²² greedy desires, wickedness, deceit, unrestrained indecency, envy, slander, arrogance and foolishness. ²³ All these evil things proceed from within [man’s heart] and [spiritually] corrupt him.”

⁴ [Note: The following traits should be understood in the context of love for people]. Love is patient [with people], and is kind [to them]; love does not envy [what people are or have]; love does not boast [of being superior to others], it is not arrogant [in dealing with people].

¹ Therefore, you should put out of your lives all malice [i.e., bad attitudes], and all deceit and hypocrisy, and all envy and unwholesome talk.

³ For we [Christians] were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved to various kinds of [evil] desires and [sinful] pleasures. [We used to] live in malice and envy, hating people and being hated by them.

¹⁶ For when jealousy and rivalry exist, there is [also] disorder and every [kind of] evil practice.

²⁶ We should avoid foolish pride as well as provoking or envying one another.

¹⁹ Now those things done by the sinful, physical nature [of a person] are evident; they are these: sexual immorality, moral impurity, indecent conduct, ²⁰ idol worship, occultic practices, hatefulness, dissension, jealousy, angry outbursts, factious spirits, divisiveness, party spirits, ²¹ envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you again, as I have done before, that those people who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
