James 5:12-14

New English Translation

¹² And above all, my brothers and sisters,^[a] do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath. But let your “Yes” be yes and your “No” be no, so that you may not fall into judgment.

Prayer for the Sick

¹³ Is anyone among you suffering? He should pray. Is anyone in good spirits? He should sing praises. ¹⁴ Is anyone among you ill? He should summon the elders of the church, and they should pray for him and anoint^[b] him with olive oil in the name of the Lord.
