16 Porque donde hay envidia y contenci贸n, all铆 hay perturbaci贸n y toda obra perversa.

Santiago 3:16 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 16 For where envying and strife is
Where these are cherished in the heart, and especially where they break out into action, in families, neighbourhoods, states, or churches:

there is confusion and every evil work;
these occasion disturbances, raise uneasiness, make disquietude, and cause tumults whenever they appear; and put persons upon doing everything that is wicked, to gratify such insatiable lusts.

Santiago 3:16 In-Context

14 Pero si ten茅is envidia amarga y contenci贸n en vuestros corazones, no os glori茅s, ni se谩is mentirosos contra la verdad:
15 Que esta sabidur铆a no es la que desciende de lo alto, sino terrena, animal, diab贸lica.
16 Porque donde hay envidia y contenci贸n, all铆 hay perturbaci贸n y toda obra perversa.
17 Mas la sabidur铆a que es de lo alto, primeramente es pura, despu茅s pac铆fica, modesta, benigna, llena de misericordia y de buenos frutos, no juzgadora, no fingida.
18 Y el fruto de justicia se siembra en paz para aquellos que hacen paz.
