A Gentile Shows Her Faith

21 aThen Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon.  
22 And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, aSon of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.”  
23 But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, “Send her away, for she cries out after us.”
24 But He answered and said, a“I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”  
25 Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, help me!”
26 But He answered and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little adogs.”  
27 And she said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, agreat is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
