18 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

² Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;

¹⁷ Pray without ceasing.

¹² Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

⁶ Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

¹⁸ Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

¹⁶ As for me, I will call upon God; and the Lord shall save me.

¹⁷ Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.

³⁶ Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

¹² Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

⁹ And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
