James 3:14-16

14But ifG1487 you haveG2192 bitterG4089 1jealousyG2205 and 2selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 in your heartG2588, do not be arrogantG2620 and so lieG5574 againstG2596 3the truthG225.

15ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 is not that which comesG2718 downG2718 4from aboveG509, but is 5earthlyG1919, 67naturalG5591, 8demonicG1141.

16For whereG3699 9jealousyG2205 and 10selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 exist, 11thereG1563 is disorderG181 and everyG3956 evilG5337 thingG4229.
