James 3:14-18
New King James Version
14 But if you have (A)bitter envy and [a]self-seeking in your hearts, (B)do not boast and lie against the truth. 15 (C)This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. 16 For (D)where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. 17 But (E)the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, (F)without partiality (G)and without hypocrisy. 18 (H)Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
