James 3:14-16
American Standard Version
14 But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom is not a wisdom that cometh down from above, but is earthly, [a]sensual, [b]devilish. 16 For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed.
