Reading:

James 3:7-18

Doth a fountain send forth at the same place
sweet water and bitter?

But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts,
glory not, and lie not against the truth.

This wisdom descendeth not from above…

For where envying and strife is,
there is confusion and every evil work.

And the fruit of righteousness
is sown in peace
of them that make peace.

[The Scriptures say in Psalm 37:11 -- But the meek...shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace]
from Psalm 37:11

As in, let us.

As in, let my and let thine.

As in…

Let my cry come near before thee, O Lord:
give me understanding according to thy word.

Let my supplications come before thee:
deliver me according to thy word.

Let thine hand help me;
for I have chosen thy precepts.

Let my soul live,
and it shall praise thee;
and let thy judgments help me.

Psalm 119:169-176
