Mark 7:25-27
Lexham English Bible
25 But immediately a woman whose young daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, when she[a] heard about him, came and[b] fell down at his feet, 26 Now the woman was a Greek—a Syrophoenician by nationality—and she was asking him that he would expel the demon from her daughter. 27 And he said to her, “Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it[c] to the dogs!”
