James 5:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 and the (A)prayer of faith will [a](B)restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will (C)raise him up, and if he has committed sins, [b]they will be forgiven him. 16 Therefore, (D)confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be (E)healed. (F)A [c]prayer of a righteous person, when it is [d]brought about, can accomplish much. 17 Elijah was (G)a man with a nature like ours, and (H)he prayed [e]earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for (I)three years and six months.
