- 5:16 So make it your practice to confess your sins to each other and to pray for each other, so that you may be healed. When a righteous person prays, that prayer is at work, and it can do a great deal. 47
- 5:14 Is anyone among you ill? That person should call for the elders of the church, and they should pray over the sick person and anoint the sick person with oil in the name of the Lord. 18
- 5:15 The prayer made in faith will save the one who is ill, and the Lord will raise them up. And if they have committed sins, they will be forgiven. 11
- 5:17 Elijah was a human being just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and no rain fell on the land for three years and six months. 9
- 5:20 let the one who does so know this: whoever brings a sinner back from the wrong path will save that sinner's soul from death and will cover a great number of sins. 4
- 5:7 So then, brothers and sisters, wait patiently until the Lord comes. Think of the farmer, who waits for the land to yield its precious harvest and is patient over it until the early and late rains have come. 3
- 5:11 Indeed, we call those who endured blessed. You have heard of Job's endurance, and you have seen the outcome the Lord gave, for the Lord is rich in compassion and mercy. 3
- 5:13 Is any one of you going through hardship? That person should pray. Is anyone in good spirits? That person should sing praises. 3
- 5:19 My brothers and sisters, if one of you wanders away from the truth and someone brings that person back, 2
- 5:4 Listen! The pay you held back from the laborers who mowed your fields is crying out, and the shouts of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Armies. 1
- 5:8 You must be patient as well. Make your hearts firm, for the Lord's coming has drawn near. 1
- 5:10 Brothers and sisters, look to the prophets who spoke in the Lord's name, and take them as your example of hardship borne with patience. 1
- 5:12 Above everything else, my brothers and sisters, do not swear oaths, whether by heaven or by earth or by anything else. When you say yes, let it be a plain yes, and when you say no, a plain no, so that you do not fall under judgment. 1
- 5:18 Then he prayed again, and the sky gave rain and the land produced its crops. 1
