Old Testament

New Testament

Matthew 15:24-30 New International Version (NIV)

24. He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”

25. The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26. He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27. “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28. Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.

29. Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down.

30. Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.
