Luke 18

¹ Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:

² “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.

³ And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’

⁴ For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,

⁵ yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”
