Matthew 15:21-28 - A Canaanite Woman's Great Faith

21 And Jesus, having gone forth from thence, withdrew into the parts of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And, behold, a woman, a Canaanite, having come forth from those boundaries, cried out to him, saying, Pity me, Lord, son of David; my daughter is badly possessed with an evil spirit.

23 And he answered her not a word. And his disciples, having come, asked him, saying, Loose her; for she cries out after us.

24 And he, having answered, said, I was not sent except to the sheep having been lost, of the house of Israel.

25 And she, having come, worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

26 And he, having answered, said, It is not good to take the children's bread, and cast it to the little dogs. 27 And she said, Yes, Lord; for the little dogs also eat from the crumbs falling from the table of their lord.

28 Then Jesus, having answered, said to her, O woman, great thy faith: let it be to thee as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.
