  "13 Is anyone among you suffering? He should pray. Is anyone in good spirits? He should sing praise.
  
  14 Is anyone among you sick? He should summon the presbyters of the church, and they should pray over him and anoint [him] with oil in the name of the Lord,
  
  15 and the prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven."

  (NABRE Jas 5: 13-15)

  "The sacrament of Anointing of the Sick has its purpose the conferral of a special grace on the Christian experiencing the difficulties inherent in the condition of grace illness or old age."

  (Catechism of the Catholic Church ¶1527)
