11. A spring does not pour forth from the same opening fresh and bitter water, does it?
12. A fig tree is not able, my brothers, to produce olives, or a grapevine figs. Neither can a saltwater spring produce fresh water.
13. Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good behavior his works, with the humility of wisdom.
14. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and tell lies against the truth.
15. This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.
16. For where there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there is disorder and every evil practice.
17. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, obedient, full of mercy and good fruits, nonjudgmental, without hypocrisy,
18. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace among those who make peace.
