Matthew 15:21-25 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

21. Jesus left and went to the territory near the cities of Tyre and Sidon.

22. Suddenly a Canaanite woman from there came out shouting, “Lord and Son of David, have pity on me! My daughter is full of demons.”

23. Jesus did not say a word. But the woman kept following along and shouting, so his disciples came up and asked him to send her away.

24. Jesus said, “I was sent only to the people of Israel! They are like a flock of lost sheep.”

25. The woman came closer. Then she knelt down and begged, “Please help me, Lord!”
