Today’s Thought
14if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
. . . .
16For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 17But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
James 3:14 if, 16-18 KJV King James Version
14…if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don’t cover up the truth with boasting and lying.
. . . .
16For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind. 17But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. 18And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.
James 3:14 if, 16-17 NLT New Living Translation
