Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.

Proverbs 14:30  

A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.

Proverbs 27:4  

Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?

Song of Songs 8:6  

Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame.

1 Corinthians 3:3  

You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men?

Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!
