Mark 7:25-30

25Instead, immediately after hearing about him, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit came and fell at his feet.

26The woman was a Gentile, a Syrophoenician by birth, and she was asking him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

27He said to her, “Let the children be fed first, because it isn’t right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

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

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

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