Do all things without grumbling and disputing,

Some indeed are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will:

The [former] proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains;

A bad man does evil with insolence, but they that are judges of themselves are wise.

Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelries and drinking bouts, not in orgies and debaucheries, not in strife and jealousy.

for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal, and walking according to human principles?

For I am afraid, lest perhaps when I come, I will not find you as I desire, and that I will be found by you as you do not desire; lest perhaps there [be] contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, disputes, slanders, gossipings, pride, disorders;

But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another!

idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions,

envies, murders, drinking bouts, revelries, and the like; which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

But now you yourselves are to put off all [these]: wrath, anger, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.

he is puffed up, understanding nothing, but [is] morbidly concerned with disputes and word battles, from which come envy, strife, slanders, evil suspicions,

But if you have bitter jealousy and strife in your heart, do not boast and lie against the truth.

For where jealousy and strife [exist], there unrest and every evil deed [are].

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously"?

But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Therefore having put away all malice, all guile, hypocrisy, envy, and all slanders,

as newborn babes, desire the genuine milk of the word, that by it you may grow,

So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the places of honor, saying to them:

and he who invited you and him shall come and say to you, 'Give place to this [man],' and then you begin with shame to take the last place.

For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

I say to you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

Be warmly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor preferring one another;

For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

with all humility and meekness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,

subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.

Likewise, younger [people], subject yourselves to [the] elders. And all of you be subject to one another, and be clothed with humility, because "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."
