James 5:12

10 ^aMy brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and ^bpatience.

11 Indeed ^awe count them blessed who ^bendure. You have heard of ^cthe perseverance of Job and seen ^dthe end intended by the Lord—that ^ethe Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

12 But above all, my brethren, ^ado not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “Yes” be “Yes,” and your “No,” “No,” lest you fall into¹ judgment.

Meeting Specific Needs

13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him ^apray. Is anyone cheerful? ^bLet him sing psalms.

14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, ^aanointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
