James 5:12–16
12 Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath.ad But let your “yes” mean “yes,” and your “no” mean “no,” so that you won’t fall under judgment.J
13 Is anyone among you suffering? He should pray. Is anyone cheerful? He should sing praises.ae 14 Is anyone among you sick? He should call for the elders of the church, and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.a 15 The prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up; if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.b 16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect.c
