21 A Canaanite Woman's Faith Mark 7:24-30Then Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon.Mark 7:24 22 Suddenly a Canaanite woman from that territory came near and began to shout, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed!”

23 But he didn't answer her at all. ^{▼▼Lit. a word}

Then his disciples came up and kept urging him, “Send her away, for she keeps on screaming after us.”

24 But he replied, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the nation ^{▼▼Lit. house} of Israel.”Matt 10:5-6; Acts 8:25-26; 13:46; Rom 15:8

25 Then she came and fell down before him, saying, “Lord, help me!”

26 He replied, “It is not right ^{▼▼Other mss. read lawful} to take the children's bread and throw it to the puppies.”Matt 7:6; Phil 3:2

27 She said, “Yes, Lord. But even the puppies eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ tables.”

28 Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you want.” That very hour her daughter was healed.
