American Standard Version
"For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed. "
— James 3:16, American Standard Version
“For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”
“For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.”
“For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice.”
“For where envying and contention is: there is inconstancy and every evil work.”
“For where envy is, and the desire to get the better of others, there is no order, but every sort of evil-doing.”
“For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”
Who is wise and understanding among you? let him show by his good life his works in meekness of wisdom.
But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth.
This wisdom is not a wisdom that cometh down from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without variance, without hypocrisy.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for them that make peace.
