James 3:16 in Context — James 3
14 Porém, se tendes amarga inveja e rivalidade no vosso coração, não vos orgulheis, nem mintais contra a verdade.
15 Esta sabedoria não é a que vem do alto, mas sim, terrena, animal, [e] demoníaca.
16 Pois onde [há] inveja e rivalidade, ali [há] perturbação e toda obra perversa.
17 Mas a sabedoria do alto é primeiramente pura, depois pacífica, moderada, tratável, cheia de misericórdia e de bons frutos, imparcial e sem hipocrisia.
18 E o fruto da justiça é semeado na paz para os que praticam a paz.
