21 Jesus then left that place, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Behold, there came to him a Canaanite woman of those parts. She wailed loudly, saying. "Pity me, Lord, thou Son of David! My daughter is possessed of an evil spirit."
23 But he answered her not a word. Then the disciples came up and kept beseeching him. "Send her away," they said, "because she wails after us."
24 In reply he said, "I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."
25 But the woman came and knelt to him and said, "Lord, do help me."
26 He answered, "It is not seemly to take the childrens bread and throw it to the little dogs."
27 "True, Lord," she said, "but even the little dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters table."
28 Then Jesus answered her. "O woman, great is your faith. It shall be for you even as you desire." And from that hour her daughter was healed.
