Mark 2:14-22

141As He passedG3855 by, He sawG3708 23LeviG3017 the son of AlphaeusG256 sittingG2521 in the taxG5058 officeG5058, and He saidG3004 to him, “4FollowG190 Me!” And he gotG450 upG450 and followedG190 Him.

15And it happenedG1096 that He was recliningG2621 at the table in his houseG3614, and manyG4183 taxG5057 collectorsG5057 and 5sinnersG268 were 6diningG4873 with JesusG2424 and His disciplesG3101; for there were manyG4183 of them, and they were followingG190 Him. 16When 7the scribesG1122 of the PhariseesG5330 sawG3708 that He was eatingG2068 with the 8sinnersG268 and taxG5057 collectorsG5057, they saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “9WhyG5101 is He eatingG2068 with taxG5057 collectorsG5057 and 10sinnersG268?” 17And hearingG191 this, JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “11It is not thoseG3588 who are healthyG2480 who needG5532 a physicianG2395, but thoseG3588 who are sickG2560; I did not comeG2064 to callG2564 the righteousG1342, but sinnersG268.”

1812John’sG2491 disciplesG3101 and the PhariseesG5330 were fastingG3522; and they cameG2064 and saidG3004 to Him, “WhyG1223G5101 do John’sG2491 disciplesG3101 and the disciplesG3101 of the PhariseesG5330 fastG3522, but Your disciplesG3101 do not fastG3522?” 19And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “WhileG1722G3739 the groomG3566 is with them, 13the attendantsG5207 of the groomG3567 cannotG1410G3361 fastG3522, can they? As longG3745G5550 as they haveG2192 the groomG3566 with them, they cannotG1410G3756 fastG3522. 20But the 14daysG2250 will comeG2064 whenG3752 the groomG3566 is takenG522 awayG522 from them, and thenG5119 they will fastG3522, on that dayG2250.

21“NoG3762 oneG3762 sewsG1976 a patchG1915 of unshrunkG46 clothG4470 on an oldG3820 garmentG2440; otherwiseG1490, 15the patchG4138 pullsG142 awayG142 from it, the newG2537 from the oldG3820, and a worseG5501 tearG4978 resultsG1096. 22And noG3762 oneG3762 putsG906 newG3501 wineG3631 into oldG3820 wineskinsG779; otherwiseG1490 the wineG3631 will burstG4486 the skinsG779, and the wineG3631 is lostG622 and the skinsG779 as well; but one puts newG3501 wineG3631 into freshG2537 wineskinsG779.”
