1. And he spoke also a parable to them to the purport that they should always pray and not faint,
2. saying, There was a judge in a city, not fearing God and not respecting man:
3. and there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adverse party.
4. And he would not for a time; but afterwards he said within himself, If even I fear not God and respect not man,
5. at any rate because this widow annoys me I will avenge her, that she may not by perpetually coming completely harass me.
