¹⁷ And Abraham prayeth unto God, and God healeth Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:

¹⁶ Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man;

⁶ for nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God;

²⁵ Brethren, pray for us;

²² and all -- as much as ye may ask in the prayer, believing, ye shall receive.'

⁷ `Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;

¹¹ Thus said Jehovah, The Holy One of Israel, and his Former: Ask Me of the things coming concerning My sons, Yea, concerning the work of My hands, ye command Me.'

²⁹ Far `is' Jehovah from the wicked, And the prayer of the righteous He heareth.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked `is' an abomination to Jehovah, And the prayer of the upright `is' His delight.

⁹ And they go -- Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite -- and do as Jehovah hath spoken unto them; and Jehovah doth accept the face of Job.

¹⁰ And Jehovah hath turned `to' the captivity of Job in his praying for his friends, and Jehovah doth add `to' all that Job hath -- to double.

¹⁰ that they be bringing near sweet savours to the God of heaven, and praying for the life of the king, and of his sons.

¹¹ And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines, and say, `Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and it turneth back to its place, and it doth not put us to death -- and our people;' for there hath been a deadly destruction throughout all the city, very heavy hath the hand of God been there,

¹² and the men who have not died have been smitten with emerods, and the cry of the city goeth up into the heavens.

³¹ And Jehovah seeth that Leah `is' the hated one, and He openeth her womb, and Rachel `is' barren;

⁷ and now send back the man's wife, for he `is' inspired, and he doth pray for thee, and live thou; and if thou do not send back, know that dying thou dost die, thou, and all that thou hast.'

²⁴ and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.
