CLV(i)
1 Now He told them a parable also, so that they must always be praying and not be despondent,
2 saying, "A certain judge was in a certain city, who did not fear God and did not respect man."
3 Now there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, saying, 'Avenge me from my plaintiff.'"
4 And for a time he would not. Yet, after this, he said in himself, 'Even if I am not fearing God nor respecting man,
5 surely, because of the weariness this widow is affording me, I shall be avenging her, lest she, coming, may belabor me into a consummation.'"
6 Now the Lord said, "Hear what the unjust judge is saying."
7 Yet should not God by all means be doing the avenging of His chosen ones, who are imploring Him day and night? And He is patient with them."
8 I am saying to you that He will be doing the avenging of them swiftly. Moreover, consequently, at the coming of the Son of Mankind, will He be finding the faith on the earth?
