Luke 18:1-8

Wycliffe Bible

18 And he said to them also a parable, that it behooveth to pray evermore, and not [to] fail; [Forsooth he said also a parable to them, for it behooveth to pray ever, and not to fail;]

² and said, There was a judge in a city, that dreaded not God, neither shamed of men.^[a]

³ And a widow was in that city, and she came to him, and said [saying], Venge me of mine adversary;

⁴ and he would not long time [and he would not by much time]. But after these things he said within himself, Though I dread not God, and shame not of man,

⁵ nevertheless for this widow is heavy to me, I shall venge her; lest at the last she coming condemn me [lest at the last she coming strangle me].

⁶ And the Lord said, Hear ye, what the doomsman of wickedness saith;

⁷ and whether God shall not do [the] vengeance of his chosen, crying to him day and night, and shall have patience in them?

⁸ Soothly I say to you, for soon he shall do [the] vengeance of them. Nevertheless guessest thou, that man's Son coming shall find faith in earth?
