Exegesis
The object phrase ten kheran tauten {τὴν χήραν ταύτην | tḕn khḗ-ran taút-tēn} ‘this widow’ precedes the main verb ekdikeso {ἐκδικήσω | ek-dikḗ-sō} to foreground her as the cause of his decision.
In context — Luke 18:5
Because indeed this widow troubles me, I will grant her justice, so that her constant coming will not wear me out .
