OET (OET-LV) Then the Yaʸsous answering said to_her:
Oh woman, great is the faith of_you, let_it_be_become to_you as you_are_wanting.
And the daughter of_her was_healed from the that hour.

OET (OET-RV) “Oh, woman” Yeshua answered, “you have lots of faith, so what you asked for will become reality.” And so her daughter was healed that very hour.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 15:21–28: A Gentile woman strongly believed in Jesus

In this section, Jesus left his own country and met a Gentile woman. This woman had a daughter who was possessed by a demon. At first, Jesus refused to help the woman. He told her that his ministry was to the Jews. But the woman showed persistence and great faith. Jesus rewarded her faith by healing her daughter. He did the healing from a distance by only speaking some words.

This story follows the story about the spiritually “blind” Pharisees. It shows that Gentiles can also have true faith. While Jesus was on the earth, his ministry was primarily to the Jews. But he also ministered to Gentiles.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

The Faith of a Gentile Woman (NLT)

Jesus Helps a Non-Jewish Woman (NCV)

There is a parallel passage for this section in Mark 7:24–30.

15:28a

“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great!

O: The Greek word that the BSB translates as O has several functions. One of its functions is to show the emotions of the speaker. Here, this word probably shows that the woman’s faith pleased/impressed Jesus. A modern English equivalent might be the expression “Wow!”

Many English versions do not translate this word.

woman: In Greek, this word is a respectful title to use when speaking to a woman. Jesus used the same title with his mother (John 2:4, 19:26). Use a respectful title that a man would use to speak a woman whom he did not know.

Here are some other ways to translate this word:

Dear woman (CEV)

Ma’am/Madam

My sister/daughter

In some languages, it may be more natural to say something about the woman instead of using it as a title. For example:

You are a woman of great faith (GNT)

your faith is great: This clause means that the woman’s belief/trust in Jesus was very strong/firm. Jesus had refused to help the woman three times. But the woman refused to give up. She was convinced that Jesus could help her.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

your faith is great (NLT)

you really do have a lot of faith (CEV)

you believe/trust in me very strongly

You truly believe in me

15:28b

Let it be done for you as you desire.”

Let it be done for you as you desire: By saying these words, Jesus did a miracle and healed the woman’s daughter. This type of statement is similar to “let there be light” in Genesis. When God or Jesus said words like this, the thing happened.

This statement is more than just a wish or a blessing. It is a command that the daughter be healed.

Here the word it refers to the woman’s request that Jesus have mercy on her daughter and heal her.

This clause is passive. Here are some other ways to translate it:

A similar statement is found in 8:13a–b where Jesus heals the centurion’s servant. Another statement like that is found in 9:29a–b where Jesus heals the ten lepers.

15:28c

And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

her daughter was healed: The daughter was delivered of her demon possession. You should use the verb in your language that normally refers to a healing or delivering from a demon.

This clause is passive. Here are some other ways to translate it:

from that very hour: The Greek phrase that the BSB translates as from that very hour means “at that moment” or “immediately.” The healing happened as soon as Jesus said the words in 15:28b.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

at that very moment (GNT)

immediately

as soon as Jesus said that

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὦ γύναι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here Jesus uses the phrase O woman to address the Canaanite woman. This phrase was a polite way to refer to someone, and Jesus uses it to show how impressed he is with what the woman said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that refers politely to a woman who has a daughter. Alternate translation: [My dear woman] or [My lady]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

μεγάλη σου ἡ πίστις

great_‹is› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [you have believed greatly]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σου & σοι & θέλεις

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here, the words your, you, and you are singular because Jesus is speaking to the woman.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

γενηθήτω

˱it˲_˓let_be˒_become

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [It will be done] or [I am doing it]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

γενηθήτω

˱it˲_˓let_be˒_become

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [let it happen] or [let God do it]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς

˓was˒_healed the daughter ˱of˲_her

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was Jesus. Alternate translation: [Jesus healed her daughter]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀπὸ τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here, the phrase from that hour indicates that the woman’s daughter was healed at the time when Jesus said those words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [right then] or [at that time]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

15:21-28 This encounter highlights another controversial issue: Gentile participation in the Kingdom of the Messiah (see 8:11).

OET (OET-LV) Then the Yaʸsous answering said to_her:
Oh woman, great is the faith of_you, let_it_be_become to_you as you_are_wanting.
And the daughter of_her was_healed from the that hour.

OET (OET-RV) “Oh, woman” Yeshua answered, “you have lots of faith, so what you asked for will become reality.” And so her daughter was healed that very hour.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
