James 3:15-18
15ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 is not that which comesG2718 downG2718 1from aboveG509, but is 2earthlyG1919, 34naturalG5591, 5demonicG1141.
16For whereG3699 6jealousyG2205 and 7selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 exist, 8thereG1563 is disorderG181 and everyG3956 evilG5337 thingG4229.
17But the wisdomG4678 9from aboveG509 is firstG4413 10pureG53, thenG1899 11peace-lovingG1516, 12gentleG1933, 13reasonableG2138, 14fullG3324 of mercyG1656 and goodG18 fruitsG2590, 1516impartialG87, freeG505 ofG505 17hypocrisyG505.
18And the 18fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 in peaceG1515 19by thoseG3588 who makeG4160 peaceG1515.
