James 3:13-17
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.

While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the beginning of the dust of the world.When he established the heavens, I was there: When he set a circle upon the face of the deep,When he made firm the skies above, When the fountains of the deep became strong,When he gave to the sea its bound, That the waters should not transgress his commandment, When he marked out the foundations of the earth;Then I was by him, as a master workman; And I was daily his delight, Rejoicing always before him,Rejoicing in his habitable earth; And my delight was with the sons of men.Now therefore, my sons, hearken unto me; For blessed are they that keep my ways.
