But the days° will come° when° the bridegroom° is taken° away° from them, and then° they will fast°. 16 But no° one° puts° Ia patch° of unshrunk° cloth° on an old° garment°; for IIthe patch° pulls° away° from the garment°, and a worse° tear° results°. 17 Nor° do [people] put° new° wine° into old° wineskins°; otherwise° the wineskins° burst°, and the wine° pours° out and the wineskins° are ruined°; but they put° new° wine° into fresh° wineskins°, and both° are preserved°.”
