Luke 18:1-5

1Now 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.

3And 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,

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