Luke 18
1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,

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

9 He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
