Mark 7:24-30 ▼

24 Jesus got up and went away from there to the region of Tyre . And when He had entered a house, He wanted no one to know [of it]; yet He could not escape notice.

25 But after hearing of Him, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit immediately came and fell at His feet.

26 Now the woman was a Gentile, of the Syrophoenician race. And she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

27 And He was saying to her, |Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.|

28 But she answered and said to Him, |Yes, Lord, [but] even the dogs under the table feed on the children's crumbs.|

29 And He said to her, |Because of this answer go; the demon has gone out of your daughter.|

30 And going back to her home, she found the child lying on the bed, the demon having left.
