Translation Trouble – Jam 5.16

 

AV “Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed…”

 

NIV   Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed…   

 

Why has the NIV changed “faults” to

 

“sins”?  Think.  Who?  What religious

 

system has people confessing their

 

sins to a man, instead of God?  God

 

and God alone can forgive sins.
