James 3:13-18

Coverdale(i) 13 So can no fountayne geue bothe salt water and fresshe also. If eny man be wyse and endued with learnynge amonge you, let him shewe the workes of his good couersacion in meknes that is coupled with wissdome. 14 But yf ye haue bitter enuyenge and stryfe in yor hertes, reioyce not: nether be lyars agaynst the trueth. 15 This wissdome descendeth not from aboue: but is erthy, and naturall, and dyuelishe. 16 For where enuyenge and stryfe is, there is vnstablenes and all maner of euell workes. 17 But the wissdom that is fro aboue, is fyrst pure, the peasable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good frutes, without iudgynge, and without simulacion: 18 yee, and the frute of rightewesnes is sowen in peace, of the that mayntene peace.
