Let him show his works by his good conduct with the humility that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not boast and deny the truth. 15 This is not the wisdom that comes down from above but is earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. 16 For where there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there is disorder and every evil practice. 17 But the wisdom that comes from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial, and sincere. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Who knows us?' 16 You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, 'You did not make me'? Can the pot say to the potter, 'You know nothing'? 17 Isn’t it yet a very little while before Lebanon will be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field considered as a forest? 18 On that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see. 19 The humble will rejoice in the LORD, and the needy among mankind will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
