Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by birth: and she made a request to him that he would send the evil spirit out of her daughter.
27
And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.
28
But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.
29
And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.
30
And she went away to her house, and saw the child on the bed, and the evil spirit gone out.
31
And again he went out from Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the country of Decapolis.
32
And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.
33
And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;
34
And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.
35
And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.
36
And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.
