Luke 18:1-7 ▼

1 And he put foorth a parable vnto them, to this ende that me ought alwayes to pray, & not to be weery,

2 Saying: There was in a certayne citie, a iudge, whiche feared not God, neither regarded man.

3 And there was a certayne widdowe in the same citie, and she came vnto him, saying: Auenge me of mine aduersarie.

4 And he woulde not for a whyle. But afterwarde he sayde within hym selfe: Though I feare not God, nor care for man,

5 Yet because this widdowe much troubleth me, I wyll auenge her: leste she come at the last, & make me weery.

6 And the Lorde sayde: heare what the vuryghteous iudge sayeth.

7 And shall not God auenge his elect, which crye day and nyght vnto hym? yea, though he deferre them,
