21 On going away from that place, Jesus retired to the country round Tyre and Sidon.
22 There, a Canaanite woman of that district came out and began calling to Jesus: "Take pity on me, Master, Son of David; my daughter is grievously possessed by a demon."
23 But Jesus did not answer her a word; and his disciples came up and begged him to send her away. "She keeps calling out after us," they said.
24 "I was not sent," replied Jesus, "to any one except the lost sheep of Israel."
25 But the woman came, and, bowing to the ground before him, said: "Master, help me."
26 "It is not fair," replied Jesus, "to take the children's food and throw it to dogs."
27 "Yes, Master," she said, "for even dogs do feed on the scraps that fall from their owners' table."
28 "Your faith is great," was his reply to the woman; "it shall be as you wish!" And her daughter was cured that very hour.
29 On leaving that place, Jesus went to the shore of the Sea of Galilee; and then went up the hill, and sat down., you will do what not only what has been done to the fig tree, but, even if you should say to this hill 'Be lifted up and hurled into the sea!' it would be done.
