Matth. 15. Verse. 21. And Jesus went thence, and departed into the parts of Tyre and Sidon. 22. And behold, a woman a Canaanite came out of the same coasts, and cried, saying unto him, Have mercy on me, O Lord, the son of David: my daughter is miserably vexed with a Devil. 23. But he answered her not a word. Then came to him his Disciples & besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us. 24. But he answered and said: I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 25. Yet she came & worshipped him, saying, Lord help me. 26. And he answered & said, it is not good to take the children's bread, and to cast it to whelps. 27. But she said, truth Lord: yet in deed the whelps eat of the crumbs, which fall from their masters table. 28. Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it to thee as thou desirest. And her daughter was made whole at that hour.
