Matthew 15:26-28

J.B. Phillips New Testament

²⁶ “It is not right, you know,” Jesus replied, “to take the children’s food and throw it to the dogs.”

²⁷ “Yes, Lord, I know, but even the dogs live on the scraps that fall from their master’s table!”

²⁸ “You certainly don’t lack faith,” returned Jesus, “it shall be as you wish.” And at that moment her daughter was cured.
