16For where envying and contention is: there is inconstancy and every evil work.

17But the wisdom that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.

18And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace.

Chapter 4

From whence are wars and contentions among you? Are they not hence, from your concupiscences, which war in your members?

2You covet, and have not: you kill and envy and cannot obtain. You contend and war, and you have not: because you ask not.

3You ask and receive not: because you ask amiss, that you may consume it on your concupiscences.
