1 And He spoke a parable to them that it behooves them to pray always, and not to faint; 2 saying, There was a certain judge in a certain city, fearing not God, and regarding not man. 3 And there was a widow in that city; and she continued to come to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he was not willing for a time: but after these things he said in himself, Though I fear not God nor regard man, 5 yet because this widow causes me trouble, I will avenge her, lest coming forever she may smite me in the face. 6 But the Lord said, I fear what the unjust judge says. 7 And shall not God avenge His elect, crying to Him day and night, and He is long-suffering over them?
