Darby Translation 1890

Luke 5:32-39 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

32. I am not come to call righteous persons, but sinful ones to repentance.

33. And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make supplications, in like manner those also of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink?

34. And he said to them, Can ye make the sons of the bridechamber fast when the bridegroom is with them?

35. But days will come when also the bridegroom will have been taken away from them; then shall they fast in those days.

36. And he spoke also a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment upon an old garment, otherwise he will both rend the new, and the piece which is from the new will not suit with the old.

37. And no one puts new wine into old skins, otherwise the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;

38. but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved.

39. And no one having drunk old wine straightway wishes for new, for he says, The old is better.
