James 3:11-14

11Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water?

12Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty spring.

13If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.

14But if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don’t cover up the truth with boasting and lying.
