Mark 7:24-37

21st Century King James Version

²⁴ And from thence He arose and went into the region of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would have no man know about it; but He could not be hid.

²⁵ For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of Him, and came and fell at His feet.

²⁶ The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by nation, and she besought Him that He would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

²⁷ But Jesus said unto her, “Let the children first be filled, for it is not meet to take the children’s bread and to cast it unto the dogs.”

²⁸ And she answered and said unto Him, “Yes, Lord, yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.”

²⁹ And He said unto her, “For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.”

³⁰ And when she had come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.

³¹ And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, He came unto the Sea of Galilee through the midst of the region of Decapolis.

³² And they brought unto Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they besought Him to put His hand upon him.

³³ And He took him aside from the multitude and put His fingers into his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue.

³⁴ And looking up to Heaven, He sighed and said unto him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”

³⁵ And straightway his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed and he spoke plainly.

³⁶ And He charged them that they should tell no man. But the more He charged them, the more widely they proclaimed it

³⁷ and were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He hath done all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak.”
