James 5:13-20 - The Effective Prayer Of Faith
13 If any of you be evil vexed, let him pray. If any of you be merry, let him sing Psalms. 14 If any be diseased among you, let him call for the elders of the congregation, and let them pray over him, and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16 Knowledge your faults one to another: and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man availeth much, if it be fervent. 17 Elijah was a man, mortal even as we are, and he prayed in his prayer, that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. 18 And again he prayed, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
19 Brethren if any of you err from the truth, and another convert him, 20 let the same know, that he which converted the sinner from going astray out of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide the multitude of sins. {Here ends the General Epistle of James}
