3There was a widowG5503 in that cityG4172, and she kept comingG2064 to him, sayingG3004, ‘1GiveG1556 me legalG1556 protectionG1556 from my opponentG476.’ 4For a whileG5550 he was unwillingG3756G2309; but afterwardG3326G3778 he saidG3004 to himselfG1438, ‘EvenG2532 thoughG1487 I do not fearG5399 GodG2316 norG3761 2respectG1788 manG444, 5yetG1065 3becauseG1223 thisG3778 widowG5503 bothersG3930G2873 me, I will 4giveG1556 her legalG1556 protectionG1556, otherwiseG2443G3361 by continuallyG1519G5056 comingG2064 she will 56wearG5299 me out.’” 6And 7the LordG2962 saidG3004, “HearG191 whatG5101 the unrighteousG93 judgeG2923 saidG3004; 7nowG1161, will not GodG2316 8bringG4160 aboutG4160 justiceG1557 for His 9electG1588 who cryG994 to Him dayG2250 and nightG3571, 10and will He 11delayG3114 longG3114 overG1909 them? 8I tellG3004 you that He will bringG4160 aboutG4160 justiceG1557 for them quicklyG5034. HoweverG4133, when the SonG5207 of ManG444 comesG2064, 12will He findG2147 13faithG4102 on the earthG1093?”
