- A froward man soweth strife:
and a whisperer separateth chief friends. - It is an honour for a man to cease from strife:
but every fool will be meddling. - Hatred stirreth up strifes:
but love covereth all sins. - Only by pride cometh contention:
but with the well advised is wisdom. - A fool's lips enter into contention,
and his mouth calleth for strokes. - For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
- Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
- Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory. Selah. For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world.Next verse!With image
