1 And He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
2 Saying, “There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:”
3 “And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, ‘Avenge me of mine adversary.'”
4 “And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I fear not God, nor regard man;'”
5 “Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.”
6 And the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge saith.”
7 “And shall not God avenge His own elect, which cry day and night unto Him, though He bear long with them?”
8 “I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall He find faith on the earth?”
