King James Version (KJV)
James 3:15
“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish.”
Verse in context — James 3
13
Who [is] a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
14
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15
This wisdom descendeth not from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish.
16
For where envying and strife [is], there [is] confusion and every evil work.
17
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
