Matthew 9:14-17

14ThenG5119 John’sG2491 disciplesG3101 cameG4334 toG846 Jesus and askedG3004, “Why is it thatG1223G5101 weG1473 andG2532 theG3588 PhariseesG5330 fastG3522 so oftenG4183,1 butG1161 YourG4771 disciplesG3101 do notG3756 fastG3522?”

15

JesusG2424 repliedG2036, “How canG1410 theG3588 guestsG5207 of theG3588 bridegroomG3567 mournG3996 whileG1909G3745 He isG1510 withG3326 themG846? ButG1161 the timeG2250 will comeG2064 whenG3752 theG3588 bridegroomG3566 will be takenG522 fromG575 themG846; thenG5119 they will fastG3522.

No oneG3762 sewsG1911 a patchG1915 of unshrunkG46 clothG4470 onG1909 an oldG3820 garmentG2440. ForG1063 theG3588 patchG4138 will pull awayG142 fromG575 theG3588 garmentG2440, andG2532 a worseG5501 tearG4978 will resultG1096.

17NeitherG3761 do men pourG906 newG3501 wineG3631 intoG1519 oldG3820 wineskinsG779. If they doG1487G1161G1490, theG3588 skinsG779 will burstG4486, theG3588 wineG3631 will spillG1632, andG2532 theG3588 wineskinsG779 will be ruinedG622. InsteadG235, they pourG906 newG3501 wineG3631 intoG1519 newG2537 wineskinsG779, andG2532 bothG297 are preservedG4933.”
