*
And Jesus ,
going from thence ,
withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon .
*
And ,
lo !
a woman of Canaan came out from those borders ,
and cried out ,
saying ,
Have compassion on me ,
Lord ,
Son of David !
My daughter is grievously afflicted with a demon .
*
But he did not answer her a word .
And his disciples came and besought him ,
saying Send her away ,
for she is crying out after us .
*
But he answered and said ,
I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel .
*
Then she came and fell down before him ,
saying ,
Lord ,
help me !
*
But he answering said ,
It is not allowable to take the children
s bread ,
and throw it to the little dogs .
*
And she said ,
Yea ,
Lord ;
for the little dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from the table of their masters .
*
Then Jesus answering said to her ,
O woman ,
great is thy faith ;
be it done to thee even as thou wilt .
And her daughter was cured from that hour .
