He also spoke a
parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up, saying, "There was a judge in a certain city who didn't fear God,
and didn't respect man. A
widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, 'Defend me from
my adversary!' He
wouldn't for a while, but afterward he said to himself, 'Though I neither
fear God, nor respect man, yet because this widow bothers
me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual
coming.'" The Lord said, "Listen to what the unrighteous judge says. Won't God avenge his chosen ones,
who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience
with them? I tell you
that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes,
will he find faith on the earth?"
