Matthew 15:21-28
15:21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
15:22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying,
Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
15:23 But he answered her not a word.
And his disciples came and besought him, saying,
Send her away; for she crieth after us.
15:24 But he answered and said,
I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
15:25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
15:26 But he answered and said,
It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
15:27 And she said, Truth, Lord:
yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
15:28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her,
O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt.
And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Mark
7:24-30
7:24 And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon,
and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be hid.
7:25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit,
heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
7:26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation;
and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
7:27 But Jesus said unto her,
Let the children first be filled:
for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.
7:28 And she answered and said unto him,
Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
7:29 And he said unto her,
For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
7:30 And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out,
and her daughter laid upon the bed.
