1 Jesus told them a story to teach them that they should keep on talking with God and not give up.
2 He said, There was a judge in a city. He did not respect God or care about people.
3 There was a woman in that city whose husband was dead. The woman came to the judge again and again. She said, "Save me from my enemy!"
4 For a long time he would not do it. But after a time he said, "I do not respect God or care about people.
5 But this woman is troubling me. So I will save her from her enemy. If I do not, she will keep coming until I am tired."
6 The Lord said, The judge was a bad man. And yet you should listen to what he says.
7 When the people whom God has chosen call to him day and night, he will save them from their enemies. He may let them wait a time.
8 But I tell you, he will save them from their enemies soon. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find any people who believe in him?
