Matthew:9:14-17
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then came (
5736 )
to him the disciples of John ,
saying (
5723 ),
Why do we and the Pharisees fast (
5719 )
oft ,
but thy disciples fast (
5719 )
not ?
*
And Jesus said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Can (
5736 )
the children of the bridechamber mourn (
5721 ),
as long as the bridegroom is (
5748 )
with them ?
but the days will come (
5695 ),
when the bridegroom shall be taken (
5686 )
from them ,
and then shall they fast (
5692 ).
*
No man putteth (
5719 )
a piece of new cloth unto an old garment ,
for that which is put in to fill it up taketh (
5719 )
from the garment ,
and the rent is made (
5736 )
worse .
*
Neither do men put (
5719 )
new wine into old bottles :
else the bottles break (
5743 ),
and the wine runneth out (
5743 ),
and the bottles perish (
5698 ):
but they put (
5719 )
new wine into new bottles ,
and both are preserved (
5743 ).
