Matthew 15:18-23

18But what comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and this defiles a person.

19For from the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual immoralities, thefts, false testimonies, slander.

20These are the things that defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile a person.”

21When Jesus left there, he withdrew to the area of Tyre and Sidon.

22Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came and kept crying out, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely tormented by a demon.”

23Jesus did not say a word to her. His disciples approached him and urged him, “Send her away because she’s crying out after us.”
