True Wisdom.
Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show his works by a
good life in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you have
bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and
be false to the truth. Wisdom of this kind does not come down from
above but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealosy and
selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every foul practice.
But the wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceable,
gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, without inconstancy
or insincerity. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for
those who cultivate peace.
