Luke 18:3-7

English Standard Version

³ And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ ⁴ For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ^(A)‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, 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.’” ⁶ And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says. ⁷ And ^(B)will not God give justice to ^(C)his elect, ^(D)who cry to him day and night? ^(E)(F)Will he delay long over them?
