Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit in her came to him and fell down at his feet.
26
The woman was a Greek, by birth a Syro-phoenician, and she begged him to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27
He said, "Let the children be fed first, for it is not right to take the children's food and toss it to their pet dogs."
28
She answered him, "That is true, sir; but even the dogs under the table eat the children's leftovers."
29
Then he said to her, "For such an answer you may go on home; the demon has left your daughter."
30
She went back home and found the child lying on the couch, the demon gone.
31
Then he left the district of Tzor and went through Tzidon to Lake Kinneret and on to the region of the Ten Towns.
32
They brought him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment and asked Yeshua to lay his hand on him.
33
Taking him off alone, away from the crowd, Yeshua put his fingers into the man's ears, spat, and touched his tongue;
34
then, looking up to heaven, he gave a deep groan and said to him, "Hippatach!" (that is, "Be opened!").
35
His ears were opened, his tongue was freed, and he began speaking clearly.
