In one city there was a judge who was not afraid of God and was not ashamed of people. In the same city there was a widow, and she came to him and said:
- Protect me from my rival.
But for a long time he didn’t want to. And then he said to himself: “Although I am not afraid of God and I am not ashamed of people, but, as this widow does not give me peace, I will protect her so that she does not come to bother me anymore.”
And the Lord said:
- Do you hear what the unjust judge says? Will not God protect His chosen ones who cry out to Him day and night, although He is slow to protect them? I tell you that he will give them protection soon. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?
