Wisdom

But the wisdom from above first is pure, then peaceful, gentle, yielding, full of mercy and good fruits, unquestioning, unfeigned.

But if any one of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all freely and reproaches not, and it shall be given to him:

For God has not sent his Son into the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him.

for ye are yet carnal. For whereas there are among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?

whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and their glory in their shame, who mind earthly things:)

Devilish

said, O full of all deceit and all craft: son of the devil, enemy of all righteousness; wilt thou not cease perverting the right paths of the Lord?

But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craft, so your thoughts should be corrupted from simplicity as to the Christ.

He that practises sin is of the devil; for from the beginning the devil sins. To this end the Son of God has been manifested, that he might undo the works of the devil.

These are they who set themselves apart, natural men, not having the Spirit.

And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient serpent, he who is called Devil and Satan, he who deceives the whole habitable world, he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
