Matthew 15:21-23

Holman Christian Standard Bible

A Gentile Mother’s Faith

²¹ When Jesus left there,^(A) He withdrew to the area of Tyre and Sidon.^{(B) 22} Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came and kept crying out,^[a] “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is cruelly tormented by a demon.”^(C)

²³ Yet He did not say a word to her. So His disciples^(D) approached Him and urged Him, “Send her away because she cries out after us.”^[b]
