But the wisdom that comes from God is like this: First, it is pure. It is also peaceful, gentle, and easy to please. This wisdom is always ready to help people who have trouble and to do good for others. This wisdom is always fair and honest.

Are there any among you who are really wise and understanding? Then you should show your wisdom by living right. You should do what is good with humility. A wise person does not boast.

People who work for peace in a peaceful way get the blessings that come from right living.

Where there is jealousy and selfishness, there will be confusion and every kind of evil.

We use our tongues to praise our Lord and Father, but then we curse people who were created in God’s likeness. These praises and curses come from the same mouth. My brothers and sisters, this should not happen.

The tongue is like a fire. It is a world of evil among the parts of our body. It spreads its evil through our whole body and starts a fire that influences all of life. It gets this fire from hell.

But no one can control the tongue. It is wild and evil, full of deadly poison.

My brothers and sisters, not many of you should be teachers. I say this because, as you know, we who teach will be judged more strictly than others.
