New Century Version

Matthew 15:23-28 New Century Version (NCV)

23. But Jesus did not answer the woman. So his followers came to Jesus and begged him, “Tell the woman to go away. She is following us and shouting.”

24. Jesus answered, “God sent me only to the lost sheep, the people of Israel.”

25. Then the woman came to Jesus again and bowed before him and said, “Lord, help me!”

26. Jesus answered, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and give it to the dogs.”

27. The woman said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.”

28. Then Jesus answered, “Woman, you have great faith! I will do what you asked.” And at that moment the woman’s daughter was healed.
