21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon. |
22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. |
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us. |
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. |
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. |
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. |
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table. |
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour. |
29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there. |

34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes. |
35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. |
36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. |
37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full. |
38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children. |
39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala, |
