Mark 7:26-30 ▼

26 She was a Gentile woman, a Syro-phoenician by nation: and again and again she begged Him to expel the demon from her daughter.

27 "Let the children first eat all they want," He said; "it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

28 "True, Sir," she replied, "and yet the dogs under the table eat the children's scraps."

29 "For those words of yours, go home," He replied; "the demon has gone out of your daughter."

30 So she went home, and found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
