James 3:15
| ← James 3:14 | James 3:15 (KJV) | James 3:16 → |
|---|---|---|
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
|
For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
