And He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint, saying: there was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man;and there was a widow in that city, and she came unto him, saying: avenge me of mine adversary.
And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
Luke 18:10-14
Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself: God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven,
but smote upon his breast, saying: God be merciful to me a sinner.
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other;
for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased;
and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
