James 3:13-18
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

1 Corinthians 14 12-1 Corinthians 14 17
So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.For if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.Otherwise if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the“ Amen” at your giving of thanks, seeing he doesn’t know what you say?For you most certainly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up.
