James 5:16-18
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
16 Therefore be confessing-out[a] your sins to one another, and be praying for one another so that you may be healed. A prayer[b] of a righteous person can-do much while working[c]. 17 Elijah was a person of-like-nature to us, and he prayed with prayer[d] that it not rain. And it did not rain upon the land for three years and six months. 18 And he prayed again and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
