punishing the children for the sin of the fathers
to the third and fourth generation of those who
hate me, Exodus 205 (NIV)

I hope you will put up with a little of my
foolishness but you are already doing that. I am
jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised
you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might
present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am
afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the
serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led
astray from your sincere and pure devotion to
Christ. 2 Corinthians 111-3 (NIV)

Jealousy is a poison that I drink in the hope
that the other person will die.

against seeing anothers success or

A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy
rots the bones. Proverbs 1430 (NIV)

Anger is cruel and wrath is like a flood, but who
can survive the destructiveness of jealousy.
Proverbs 274 (NLT)
9
If you are wise and understand Gods ways, prove
it by living an honorable life, doing good works
with the humility that comes from wisdom. But if
you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish
ambition in your heart, dont cover up the truth
with boasting and lying. For jealousy and
selfishness are not Gods kind of wisdom. Such
things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. For
wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition,
there you will find disorder and evil of every
kind. James 314-16 NLT
