James 5:13-20

13Is anyoneG5100 amongG1722 you 1sufferingG2553? 2Then he must prayG4336. Is anyoneG5100 cheerfulG2114? He is to 3singG5567 praisesG5567. 14Is anyoneG5100 amongG1722 you sickG770? Then he must callG4341 for 4the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577 and they are to prayG4336 overG1909 him, 56anointingG218 him with oilG1637 in the nameG3686 of the LordG2962; 15and the 7prayerG2171 of faithG4102 will 89restoreG4982 the one who is sickG2577, and the LordG2962 will 10raiseG1453 him upG1453, and ifG2579 he has committedG4160 sinsG266, 11they will be forgivenG863 him. 16ThereforeG3767, 12confessG1843 your sinsG266 to oneG240 anotherG240, and prayG4336 for oneG240 anotherG240 soG3704 thatG3704 you may be 13healedG2390. 14A 15prayerG1162 of a righteousG1342 personG1342, when it is 16broughtG1754 aboutG1754, canG2480 accomplishG1754 muchG4183. 17ElijahG2243 was 17a manG444 with a natureG3663 likeG3663 oursG1473, and 18he prayedG4336 19earnestlyG4335 that it would not rainG1026, and it did not rainG1026 on the earthG1093 for 20threeG5140 yearsG1763 and sixG1803 monthsG3376. 18ThenG2532 he 21prayedG4336 againG3825, and 22the skyG3772 23pouredG1325 rainG5205 and the earthG1093 producedG985 its fruitG2590.

19My brothersG80 and sisters, 24ifG1437 anyoneG5100 amongG1722 you straysG4105 from 25the truthG225 and someoneG5100 turnsG1994 him backG1994, 20let him knowG1097 that the one who has turnedG1994 a sinnerG268 from the errorG4106 of his wayG3598 will 26saveG4982 his soulG5590 from deathG2288 and 27coverG2572 a multitudeG4128 of sinsG266.
