James 5:14-16

14Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for 1the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, 23anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

15and the 4prayer of faith will 56restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will 7raise him up, and if he has committed sins, 8they will be forgiven him.

16Therefore, 9confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be 10healed. 11A 12prayer of a righteous person, when it is 13brought about, can accomplish much.
