But the wisdom that comes from God is first of all pure, then peaceful, gentle, and easy to please. This wisdom is always ready to help those who are troubled and to do good for others. It is always fair and honest.

Are there those among you who are truly wise and understanding? Then they should show it by living right and doing good things with a gentleness that comes from wisdom.

People who work for peace in a peaceful way plant a good crop of right-living.

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

We use our tongues to praise our Lord and Father, but then we curse people, whom God made like himself. Praises and curses come from the same mouth! My brothers and sisters, this should not happen.

And the tongue is like a fire. It is a whole world of evil among the parts of our bodies. The tongue spreads its evil through the whole body. The tongue is set on fire by hell, and it starts a fire that influences all of life.

but no one can tame the tongue. It is wild and evil and full of deadly poison.

My brothers and sisters, not many of you should become teachers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.
