^(v)Jesus got up and went away from there to the region of ^(w)Tyre^[k]. And when He had entered a house, He wanted no one to know of it; ^[l]yet He could not escape notice.

But after hearing of Him, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit immediately came and fell at His feet.

Now the woman was a ^[m]Gentile, of the Syrophoenician race. And she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

And He was saying to her, "Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not ^[n]good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

But she answered and *said to Him, "Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table feed on the children's crumbs."

And He said to her, "Because of this ^[o]answer go; the demon has gone out of your daughter."

And going back to her home, she found the child ^[p]lying on the bed, the demon having left.
