James 5:17

15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. ^aAnd if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

16 ¹Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. ^aThe effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
