The Syrophoenician Woman's Faith

Mark 7:24-30

And from thence having risen, he went away to the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and having entered into the house, he wished none to know, and he was not able to be hid,

for a woman having heard about him, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having come, fell at his feet, --

and the woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phenician by nation--and was asking him, that the demon he may cast forth out of her daughter.

And Jesus said to her, `Suffer first the children to be filled, for it is not good to take the children's bread, and to cast it to the little dogs.'

And she answered and saith to him, `Yes, sir; for the little dogs also under the table do eat of the children's crumbs.'

And he said to her, `Because of this word go; the demon hath gone forth out of thy daughter;'

and having come away to her house, she found the demon gone forth, and the daughter laid upon the couch.
