Matthew 15:21-28 Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the
region of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that
region and cried out to Him, saying, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of
David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed." But He answered her
not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, "Send her
away, for she cries out after us." But He answered and said, "I was
not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." Then she
came and worshiped Him, saying, "Lord, help me!" But He answered and
said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the
little dogs." And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat
the crumbs which fall from their masters' table." Then Jesus answered
and said to her, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as
you desire." And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
