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:
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 tenéis envidia amarga, y contención en vuestros corazones, no os gloriéis, ni seáis mentirosos contra la verdad.
15
Porque esta sabiduría no es la que desciende de lo alto, sino que es terrenal, animal, diabólica.
16
Porque donde hay envidia y contención, allí hay perturbación, y toda obra perversa.
17
Mas la sabiduría que es de lo alto, primeramente es pura, después pacífica, 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.
