Jesus then withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And a Canaanite woman from those parts came to meet him crying. 'Son of David! Have pity on me; my daughter is tormented by a devil.' But he said not a word in reply. His disciples came and urged him: 'Send her away! See how she comes shouting after us.' Jesus replied, 'I was sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, and to them alone.' But the woman came and fell at his feet and cried, 'Help me, Sir.' Jesus replied, 'It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.' 'True, Sir' she answered, 'and yet the dogs eat the scraps that falls from their master's table.'
