JESUS Parable To Pray Persistently 18

Luke 18:1

And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.

Luke 18:2

He said, 

“In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man.

Luke 18:3

And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’

Luke 18:4

For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,

Luke 18:5

yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’”

Luke 18:6

And the Lord said, 

“Hear what the unrighteous judge says.

Luke 18:7

And will not God give justice to his elect, 

who cry to him day and night?  

Will he delay long over them?

Luke 18:8

I tell you, 

he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, 

when the Son of Man comes,  

will he find faith on earth?”
