Synoptic sayings - The Unjust Judge

239	The UNJUST JUDGE
Matt	Mark	Luke 18
		1	And he told them a parable,
			to the effect that they ought always to pray
			and not lose heart.
		2	He said,
			"In a certain city there was a judge
			who neither feared god nor regarded man;
		3	and there was a widow in that city
			who kept coming to him and saying,
			'Vindicate me against my adversary.'
		4	For a while he refused;
			but afterward he said to him,
			'Though I neither fear God nor regard man,
		5	yet because this widow bothers me,
			I will vindicate her,
			or she will wear me out
			by her continual coming.'
		6	And the Lord said,
			'Hear what the unrighteous judge says.
		7	And will not God vindicate his elect,
			who cry to him day and night?
			Will he delay long over them?
		8	I tell you,
			he will vindicate them speedily.
			Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes,
			will he find faith on earth?"
