Matthew 15:21-28

Revised Geneva Translation

²¹ And Jesus left there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon.

²² And behold, a Gentile woman came out of the same region, and cried, saying to Him, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, the Son of David! My daughter is badly possessed by a demon!”

²³ But He did not answer her a word. Then His disciples came to Him and urged Him, saying, “Send her away. For she cries after us.”

²⁴ But He answered, and said, “I am not sent, but to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.”

²⁵ Still, she came and worshipped Him, saying, “Lord help me.”

²⁶ And He answered, and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and cast it to the dogs.”

²⁷ But she said, “Truth, Lord. Yet, even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their master’s table.”

²⁸ Then Jesus answered, and said to her, “O, woman. Great is your faith. Let it be as you desire.” And her daughter was made whole at that hour.
