Luke 18:1–10

And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought aalways to pray, and not bto faint; 2 Saying, There was †in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither cregarded man: 3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor cregard man; 5 dYet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she eweary me. 6 And the Lord said, Hear what fthe unjust judge saith. 7 And gshall not God havenge his own ielect, which cry day and night unto him, though khe bear long with them? 8 I tell you that he will havenge them lspeedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

9 And he spake this parable unto certain mwhich trusted nin themselves ||that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 Two men owent up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a ppublican.
