⁷ Now then, return the man's wife, ^(A)for he is a prophet, so that he will pray for you, and you shall live. But if you do not return her, know that you shall surely die, you ^(B)and all who are yours.”

²³ Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing ^(A)to pray for you, ^(B)and I will instruct you in the good and the right way.

¹⁶ Therefore, ^(A)confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, ^(B)that you may be healed. ^(C)The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.^[a]

¹⁶ If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and ^(A)God^[a] will give him life—to those who commit sins that do not lead to death. ^(B)There is sin that leads to death; ^(C)I do not say that one should pray for that.
