Par ▾

1 And he spoke a parable to them, that they ought always to pray, and not to become weary,

2 saying: There was in a certain city a judge, who neither feared God nor regarded man.

3 And there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, and said: Avenge me on my opponent at law.

4 And for a while he refused. But afterward he said within himself: Though I fear not God, nor regard man,

5 yet, because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6 And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge says;

7 and will not God avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night, though he delay long in respect to them?
