Verse Numbers
1
And he spoke also a parable to them to the purport that they should always pray and not faint,
2
saying, There was a judge in a city, not fearing God and not respecting man:
3
and there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adverse party.
4
And he would not for a time; but afterwards he said within himself, If even I fear not God and respect not man,
5
at any rate because this widow annoys me I will avenge her, that she may not by perpetually coming completely harass me.
6
And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.
7
And shall not God at all avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night, and he bears long as to them?
8
I say unto you that he will avenge them speedily. But when the Son of man comes, shall he indeed find faith on the earth?
