Exegesis
The imperative genēthētō soi {γενηθήτω σοι | ge-nē-thḗ-tō soi} “let it be done for you” is a third person aorist passive imperative expressing a decisive, authoritative granting, while the comparative clause hōs theleis {ὡς θέλεις | hōs thé-leis} “as you desire” specifies that the granting matches her own expressed will.
In context — Matthew 15:28
Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith ; let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.
