Glad for Gary
Gary, it's a rare day that someone's pleased with something I've said or done, so you've made my day by expressing your pleasure with my quoting the KJV. So I'll keep doing it!! (big grin!)
BTW did I get it wrong? KJV says (James 5:16):
"Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much"
and ESV (the very latest, you-beaut "Eastern Suburbs Version" for us non-Greeks amongst us):
"Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working"
Both seem to be saying the same thing, maybe different from the hippy versions some of us prefer (bigger grin!@!)
Now, why confession and praying go together for effective prayer eludes my frazzled brain right now, so I have need that some man shouldest guide me. Over to you, teacher Gary!
