fear
God, and

respect
man .
Saying, There was in a city a
judge,
which

not

A widow was
in that city ,

came to

me from
my
adversary !'

there
was
a widow in that city ;

him, saying, Avenge
me of
mine
adversary .

Though I neither
fear God, nor respect
man ,
And
he would
not
for a while :
but afterward he said within

God, nor regard
man ;
yet because this widow bothers
me, I will defend
her, or
else
she
will
wear
me
out
by her continual coming. '"

me, I will avenge
her, lest
by her continual coming she
weary
me

judge saith

God avenge his chosen
ones

are
crying
out
to
him
day and night, and
yet
he exercises
patience
with them?

not
God avenge his own
elect
, which
cry
day and night unto
him

he bear
long
with them?
I tell you that he will avenge them quickly
. Nevertheless ,
when the Son of Man comes
, will
he find faith on the earth? "

he find faith on the earth?
