New International Version
The Faith of a Canaanite Woman(A)
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.(B) 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David,(C) have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”(D)
23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”(E)
25 The woman came and knelt before him.(F) “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
27 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
28 Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith!(G) Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.
Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand(H)(I)(J)
29 Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down. 30 Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.(K) 31 The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.(L)
32 Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people;(M) they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.”
33 His disciples answered, “Where could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?”
34 “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.
“Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”
35 He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. 36 Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them(N) and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people. 37 They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.(O) 38 The number of those who ate was four thousand men, besides women and children. 39 After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.

耶稣帮助非犹太女子
21 耶稣离开那里，到推罗和西顿去了。 22 当地的一个迦南女子来见他，喊着∶“主啊，大卫的子孙，可怜可怜我吧！我女儿被鬼附体，痛苦万分。”
23 耶稣对她一言不发。门徒们走近耶稣说∶“您让她走开吧，她总跟在我们后边嚷嚷。”
24 耶稣答道∶“上帝只派我到迷途的以色列人中间来。”
25 那女子走过来跪在面前说∶“主，请帮帮我吧！”
26 耶稣回答说∶“我不该把给孩子吃的东西拿去喂狗。”
27 女子答道∶“您说的对，主，不过连狗也能吃从主人桌上掉下来的残渣剩饭。”
28 耶稣说∶“妇人，你有很强的信仰！祝你如愿以偿。”顿时，她女儿的病就好了。
耶稣治愈很多人
29 耶稣离开那里，来到加利利湖边。他登上一座山坡，坐了下来。
30 很多人聚到他身边，他们带来中有瘸腿的、失明的、残废的、聋哑的和其它各种各样的病人，他们躺在耶稣脚边，耶稣把他们一一治好了。 31 众人都为此感到惊讶。他们亲眼看见聋哑人开口说话，残疾人恢复正常，瘸腿的能行走，盲人见到光明。他们禁不住地赞美以色列的上帝。
耶稣向四千多人提供食物
32 耶稣把门徒叫到身边，对他们说∶“我很同情他们，这些人和我在一起已经三天了，也没有吃的东西。我不想让他们饿着肚子回去，他们可能会在路上晕倒的。”
33 门徒问∶“在这荒郊野外，我们到哪儿去找足够的食物给这么多人吃呀？”
34 耶稣问∶“你们有多少块面包？”
他们说∶“七块面包和几条小鱼。”
35 耶稣吩咐人群坐在地上。 36 他拿着七块面包和鱼，感谢上帝，然后他掰开食物，递给门徒们，他们又把食物分给了众人。 37 所有的人都吃饱了，之后门徒们收拾起剩下的食物，足足装满了七筐。 38 当时吃饭的人除了女人和孩子之外，大约有四千个男人。 39 吃完饭，耶稣打发人们回家去了，然后乘船到马加丹地区去了。

Matthew 15:21-39
King James Version
21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.
38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala.
