Mark 7:28-36 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

28. But she replied to Him, “Lord, even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”

29. Then He told her, “Because of this reply, you may go. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”

30. When she went back to her home, she found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.

31. Again, leaving the region of Tyre, He went by way of Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis.

32. They brought to Him a deaf man who also had a speech difficulty, and begged Jesus to lay His hand on him.

33. So He took him away from the crowd privately. After putting His fingers in the man’s ears and spitting, He touched his tongue.

34. Then, looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (that is, “Be opened! ”).

35. Immediately his ears were opened, his speech difficulty was removed, and he began to speak clearly.

36. Then He ordered them to tell no one, but the more He would order them, the more they would proclaim it.
