U the end. ^^^^^ WHO is a vise man and endued with knowledge among you ? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with raeekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter en- vying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthlv, sensual^ devilish. For wheie envying and strife is^ there is confusion and every evil work. 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 par- tiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteous- ness is sown in peace of them that make peace. :•»»«< .■ .1. The GoapeL Si, Matthew, V. ver.
