Luke 18:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ In that same town there was a widow who kept coming to him and pleading, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’

⁴ “For a long time he refused her request, but finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I neither fear God nor have any respect for people, ⁵ yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will see to it that she gets justice. Otherwise, she will keep coming and wear me out.’ ”
