Second Reading 2 Timothy 3:14-4:2
14Yet truly, you should remain in those things which you have learned and which have been entrusted to you. For you know from whom you have learned them.
15And, from your infancy, you have known the Sacred Scriptures, which are able to instruct you toward salvation, through the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16All Scripture, having been divinely inspired, is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in justice,
17so that the man of God may be perfect, having been trained for every good work.
4:1I testify before God, and before Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead through his return and his kingdom:
2that you should preach the word urgently, in season and out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke, with all patience and doctrine.

Gospel Luke 18:1-8
1Now he also told them a parable, that we should continually pray and not cease,
2saying: “There was a certain judge in a certain city, who did not fear God and did not respect man.
3But there was a certain widow in that city, and she went to him, saying, ‘Vindicate me from my adversary.’
4And he refused to do so for a long time. But afterwards, he said within himself: ‘Even though I do not fear God, nor respect man,
5yet because this widow is pestering me, I will vindicate her, lest by returning, she may, in the end, wear me out.’”
6Then the Lord said: “Listen to what the unjust judge said.
7So then, will not God grant the vindication of his elect, who cry out to him day and night? Or will he continue to endure them?
8I tell you that he will quickly bring vindication to them. Yet truly, when the Son of man returns, do you think that he will find faith on earth?”

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
