James 5:9 Do not complain about each other, brothers, or you will be condemned. Look! The Judge is standing at the door!
James 5:10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord.
James 5:11 We consider those who endured to be blessed. You have heard about Job's endurance and have seen the purpose of the Lord-that the Lord is compassionate and merciful.
James 5:12 Above all, brothers, do not swear oaths by heaven, by earth, or by any other object. Instead, let your "Yes" mean yes and your "No" mean no, lest you fall under condemnation.
James 5:13 Is anyone of you suffering? He should keep on praying. Is anyone cheerful? He should keep reciting psalms.
James 5:14 Is anyone of you sick? He should call for the elders of the church, and they should pray for him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.
James 5:15 And the prayer offered in faith will save the person who is sick. The Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven.
James 5:16 Therefore, make it your habit to confess your sins to one another and to pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
James 5:17 Elijah was a man just like us, and he prayed earnestly for it not to rain, and it did not rain on the ground for three years and six months.

James 5:19 My brothers, if one of you wanders away from the truth and somebody brings him back,
James 5:20 you may be sure that whoever brings a sinner back from his wrong path will save his soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.
