26For the woman was a Gentile, a Syrophenician born. And she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

27Who said to her: suffer first the children to be filled: for it is not good to take the bread of the children and cast it to the dogs.

28But she answered and said to him: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat under the table of the crumbs of the children.

29And he said to her: For this saying, go thy way. The devil is gone out of thy daughter.

30And when she was come into her house, she found the girl lying upon the bed and that the devil was gone out.

Since she was a Gentile, born in Syrian Phoenicia, Jesus told her, “First I should feed the children—my own family, the Jews. It isn’t right to take food from the children and throw it to the dogs.”

She replied, “That’s true, Lord, but even the dogs under the table are allowed to eat the scraps from the children’s plates.”

“Good answer!” he said. “Now go home, for the demon has left your daughter.” And when she arrived home, she found her little girl lying quietly in bed, and the demon was gone.
