they are conceited and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions

Then that person is proud and doesn’t understand anything. They like to argue more than they should. They can’t agree about what words mean. All of this results in wanting what others have. It causes fighting, harmful talk, and evil distrust.

he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions,

Anyone who teaches something different is arrogant and lacks understanding. Such a person has an unhealthy desire to quibble over the meaning of words. This stirs up arguments ending in jealousy, division, slander, and evil suspicions.

Of these things put[ them] in remembrance, charging[ them] before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit,[ but] to the subverting of the hearers.

Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;

Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith:[ so do].

For when they speak great swelling[ words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh,[ through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.

These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling[ words], having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.

But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.

But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

Him that is weak in the faith receive ye,[ but] not to doubtful disputations.

Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as[ ye do this] day, to make your voice to be heard on high.

For ye are yet carnal: for whereas[ there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

There is that maketh himself rich, yet[ hath] nothing:[ there is] that maketh himself poor, yet[ hath] great riches.

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:

Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

But if it be a question of words and names, and[ of] your law, look ye[ to it]; for I will be no judge of such[ matters].

Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour[ you], if a man take[ of you], if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

[ Be] of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and[ in] the bond of iniquity.

Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift[ is like] clouds and wind without rain.

Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

[ Let] nothing[ be done] through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told[ you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit?[ there is] more hope of a fool than of him.

From whence[ come] wars and fightings among you?[ come they] not hence,[ even] of your lusts that war in your members?Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

What[ doth it] profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be[ ye] warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what[ doth it] profit?Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
