Luke 18 : 1 - 8
Chapter 18
| 1 | Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,
|
| 2 | saying: "There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man.
|
| 3 | Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, "Get justice for me from my adversary.'
|
| 4 | And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, "Though I do not fear God nor regard man,
|
| 5 | yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me."'
|
| 6 | Then the Lord said, "Hear what the unjust judge said.
|
| 7 | And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them?
|
| 8 | I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?"
