In Context

1 And he spake also a simile to them, that it behoveth us always to pray, and not to faint,

2 saying, 'A certain judge was in a certain city — God he is not fearing, and man he is not regarding —

3 and a widow was in that city, and she was coming unto him, saying, Do me justice on my opponent,

4 and he would not for a time, but after these things he said in himself, Even if God I do not fear, and man do not regard,

5 yet because this widow doth give me trouble, I will do her justice, lest, perpetually coming, she may plague me.'
