King James Version KJV
New International Version NIV
21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
21
Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
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.
22
A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
23
Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
24 But he answered and said,I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
24
He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
25
The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 But he answered and said,It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
26
He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
27
“Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
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.
28
Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.
