33. Some people said to Jesus, “The disciples of John fast frequently and offer prayers, and the disciples of the Pharisees do the same; but your disciples eat and drink.”
34. Jesus answered, “Do you think you can make the guests at a wedding party go without food as long as the bridegroom is with them? Of course not!
35. But the day will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.”
36. Jesus also told them this parable: “No one tears a piece off a new coat to patch up an old coat. If he does, he will have torn the new coat, and the piece of new cloth will not match the old.
37. Nor does anyone pour new wine into used wineskins, because the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will pour out, and the skins will be ruined.
38. Instead, new wine must be poured into fresh wineskins!
39. And no one wants new wine after drinking old wine. ‘The old is better,’ he says.”
