19 Behold, at that time
I will deal with all who afflict you;
I will save the (A)lame,
And gather those who were driven out;
I will appoint them for praise and fame
In every land where they were put to shame.
20 At that time (B)I will bring you back,
Even at the time I gather you;
For I will give you [a]fame and praise
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I return your captives before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.

The Parable of the Persistent Widow
18 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men (A)always ought to pray and not lose heart, 2 saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor [a]regard man. 3 Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, [b]‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ 4 And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, 5 (B)yet because this widow troubles me I will [c]avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”
6 Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. 7 And (C)shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? 8 I tell you (D)that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”

Assurance of Zion’s Salvation
62 For Zion’s sake I will not [a]hold My peace,
And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
And her salvation as a lamp that burns.
2 (C)The Gentiles shall see your righteousness,
And all (D)kings your glory.
(E)You shall be called by a new name,
Which the mouth of the Lord will name.
3 You shall also be (F)a crown of glory
In the hand of the Lord,
And a royal diadem
In the hand of your God.
