Luke 18:1–8

Then Jesus told them a parable about
their need to pray always and not to lose heart. He said, “In a certain city
there was a judge who neither feared God nor had respect for people. In that
city there was a widow who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Grant me justice
against my opponent.’ For a while he refused; but later he said to himself,
‘Though I have no fear of God and no respect for anyone, yet because this widow
keeps bothering me, I will grant her justice, so that she may not wear me out
by continually coming.’” And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge
says. And will not God grant justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and
night? Will he delay long in helping them? I tell you, he will quickly grant
justice to them. And yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on
earth?”
