"Where jealousy and selfish ambition
exist there will be disorder
and every vile practice.
But the wisdom from above
is first pure,
the peacable,
gentle,
open to reason,
full of mercy and good fruits,
without uncertainty or insincerity.
And the harvest of righteousness
is sown in peace
by those who make peace."
(James 3:17)

"Out of
Zion shall go forth the law,
and the
word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between
the nations,
and shall
decide for many peoples;
and they
shall beat their swords
into
plowshares,
and their
spears into pruning hooks;
nation
shall not lift up sword
against
nation,
neither
shall they study war any more."
"Woe to you, destroyer,
who yourself
have
not been destroyed;
you treacherous
one,
with
whom none has dealt with
treacherously!
When you have ceased
to destroy,
you will
be destroyed;
and when
you have made an end of
dealing
treacherously,
you will
be dealt with treacherously."
(Isaiah 33:1)
