Mark 7:27-29

²⁷ Jesus told the woman, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and ·give [throw] it to the dogs. First let the children eat all they want.” [^C“Children” refers to Israel; “dogs” to the Gentiles.]

²⁸ But she answered, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table can eat the children’s crumbs.”

²⁹ Then Jesus said, “Because of your answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”
