Luke 5:36-39 Common English Bible (CEB)

36. Then he told them a parable. "No one tears a patch from a new garment to patch an old garment. Otherwise, the new garment would be ruined, and the new patch wouldn’t match the old garment.

37. Nobody pours new wine into old wineskins. If they did, the new wine would burst the wineskins, the wine would spill, and the wineskins would be ruined.

38. Instead, new wine must be put into new wineskins.

39. No one who drinks a well-aged wine wants new wine, but says, ‘The well-aged wine is better.’"
