Luke 18:1-8

Chapter 18

1
 Jesus told them a parable to illustrate that they should pray constantly and not lose heart. 
2

He said: 

“In a certain town, there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about people. 

3

In the same town, there was a widow who kept coming to him, saying, ‘Defend my rights against my adversary!’ 

4

For a while, he refused, but finally he thought, ‘Even though I neither fear God nor care about people,

5

this widow damages my reputation, so I will see that she gets justice; then she will stop coming and wear me out.”

6

And Jesus said: 

“Listen to what the evil judge says. 

7

Will God not do justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night, even if he delays in answering? 

8

I tell you, he will quickly do justice for them. But, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
