New King James Version

Luke 18:1-5 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,

2. saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man.

3. Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, ‘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. yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”
