26. Now the woman was a Greek—a Syrophoenician by nationality—and she was asking him that he would expel the demon from her daughter.

27. And he said to her, “Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs!”

28. But she answered and said to him, “Lord, even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”

29. And he said to her, “Because of this statement, go! The demon has gone out of your daughter.”

30. And when she went to her home, she found the child lying on the bed and the demon gone.

31. And again he went away from the region of Tyre and came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, within the region of the Decapolis.

32. And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had difficulty speaking, and they were imploring him that he would place his hand on him.

33. And he took him away from the crowd by himself and put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting, he touched his tongue.
