In context

1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,

2 saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God and didn’t respect man.

3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’

4 He wouldn’t for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,

5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
