Luke 18:1-5 ▼

1 Now he told them a parable on the need for them to pray always and not give up.

2 “There was a judge in a certain town who didn’t fear God or respect people.

3 And a widow in that town kept coming to him, saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’

4 “For a while he was unwilling, but later he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or respect people,

5 yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice, so that she doesn’t wear me out by her persistent coming.’ ”
