For a
certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him and came and fell at his feet;
26
the woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation, and she besought him that he would cast forth the demon out of her daughter.
27
But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and to cast
it unto the dogs.
28
And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
29
And he said unto her, For this word go; the demon has gone out of thy daughter.
30
And when she came to her house, she found that the demon had gone out, and the daughter lay upon the bed.
31
And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre, he came by Sidon unto the sea of Galilee through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.
32
And they bring unto him one that was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
33
And taking him aside from the multitude, he put his fingers into the man’s ears; and spitting, he touched the man’s tongue
with the saliva;
34
and looking up to heaven, he cried out, and said, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35
And straightway his ears were opened, and that which bound his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.
