for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?

KJV with Strongs
(3) because you are still fleshly! For since there's jealousy and strife in you, aren't you fleshly and walking according to man?
The F.O.G
[3] You're still letting your natural, unspiritual instincts control you. Look at how jealousy and rivalry poison your relationships! When you scheme and fight like people who don't know יהוה, aren't you proving you're still operating by worldly standards?
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for yet ye are fleshly, for where there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
