St Matthew 15:21-26 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

21. And Jesus went from thence, and retired into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

22. And behold a woman of Canaan who came out of those coasts, crying out, said to him: Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David: my daughter is grieviously troubled by the devil.

23. Who answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us:

24. And he answering, said: I was not sent but to the sheep that are lost of the house of Israel.

25. But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me.

26. Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs.
