20These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.” 21Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders and cried, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely possessed by a demon!” 23But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.” 24But he answered,“I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
