Lord, Son of David,

have mercy on me!

.

Jesus did not answer a word.

.

They urged him,

Send her away, for she keeps crying after us.

.

The woman came and knelt before him,

Lord, help me!

.

It is not right to take the children’s bread

and toss it to the dogs.

.

Yes it is, Lord

.

Even the dogs eat the crumbs

that fall from the master’s table.

.

Woman, you have great faith!

Your request is granted.

.

And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
