James 5:12-14

Good News Translation

^12 (A)Above all, my friends, do not use an oath when you make a promise. Do not swear by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Say only “Yes” when you mean yes, and “No” when you mean no, and then you will not come under God's judgment.

¹³ Are any among you in trouble? They should pray. Are any among you happy? They should sing praises. ^14 (B)Are any among you sick? They should send for the church elders, who will pray for them and rub olive oil on them in the name of the Lord.
