*
Leaving that place ,
Jesus retired into the region of Tyre and Sidon .
*
Here a Canaanite woman of those parts came out and cried , "
Sir ,
have pity on me ,
Son of David .
My daughter is terribly tormented by a demon ."
*
But he did not answer her a word .
Then his disciples came and begged him ,
saying , "
Send her away ;
she keeps calling out behind us ."
*
He replied ,
*
But she came and bowed before him and said , "
Help me ,
Sir ."
*
He answered ,
*
But she said , "
Yes ,
Sir ;
for even the dogs eat of the crumbs that fall from their masters '
table ."
*
Then Jesus said to her ,
And her daughter was cured from that hour .
