Yaakov 3:10-14 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

10. Out of the same PEH comes forth bracha and also kelalah. My Achim b'Moshiach, these things ought not to be.

11. Surely not out of the same makor (fountain) pours forth mayim both sweet and bitter?

12. Surely an etz te'enah (fig tree) cannot yield olives, my Achim b'Moshiach, or a grape vine figs? Neither can salt water yield sweet water.

13. Who has chochmah and binah among you? Let him show by his hitnahagut hatovah (good conduct) that the ma'asim of him are of the shiflut (lowliness) of chochmah.

14. But if bitter kina (jealousy) you have and anochiyut (selfishness) in your levavot, do not boast and speak sheker against HaEmes.
