There are other possibilities, @guardian10 is probably correct, but it could be due to for example water damage or a recently added app. If the phone works okay while plugged in to power with the original cable and power supply, but not when unplugged. (Assuming no damage). He is right. If it makes no differences, restart in safe mode to disable 3rd party apps, if it works fine figure out which were installed bout the time the symptoms began. See if uninstalling it fixes things... if no joy a new battery may cure it. I'd recheck the charger and cable first, though.

Then that gives you the answer, if it works fine while plugged in: it is time for a new battery. Follow the guide @guardian10 posted above or find a local shop or a mail-in repair service to do it for you.
