Wisdom from Above

13Who is wise and understanding among you? sBy his good conduct let him show his works tin the meekness of wisdom. 14But if you have bitter ujealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15This is not vthe wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, wdemonic. 16For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 17But xthe wisdom from above is first pure, then ypeaceable, gentle, open to reason, zfull of mercy and good fruits, aaimpartial and absincere. 18And aca harvest of righteousness adis sown in peace by those who make peace.
