Wisdom from Above
13Who is wise and understanding among you? mBy his good conduct let him show his works nin the meekness of wisdom. 14But if you have bitter ojealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15This is not pthe wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, qdemonic. 16For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 17But rthe wisdom from above is first pure, then speaceable, gentle, open to reason, tfull of mercy and good fruits, uimpartial and vsincere. 18And wa harvest of righteousness xis sown in peace by those who make peace.
