Philippians 2:3

3Do nothing from iselfish ambition or jconceit, but in khumility count others more significant than yourselves.

James 3:14-18

14But if you have bitter ljealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15This is not mthe wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, ndemonic. 16For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 17But othe wisdom from above is first pure, then ppeaceable, gentle, open to reason, qfull of mercy and good fruits, rimpartial and ssincere. 18And ta harvest of righteousness uis sown in peace by those who make peace.
