The Scriptures 1998

James 5:13-20 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

13. Is any of you suffering evil? Let him pray. Is anyone in good spirits? Let him sing psalms.

14. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, having anointed him with oil in the Name of the Master.

15. And the prayer of the belief shall save the sick, and the Master shall raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he shall be forgiven.

16. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, so that you are healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous one accomplishes much.

17. Äšliyahu was a man with feelings like us, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain. And it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

18. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the land brought forth its fruit.

19. Brothers, if anyone among you goes astray from the truth, and someone turns him back,

20. let him know that he who turns a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a life from death and cover a great number of sins.
