Mark 2:19-21

Contemporary English Version

¹⁹ Jesus answered:

The friends of a bridegroom don't go without eating while he is still with them. ²⁰ But the time will come when he will be taken from them. Then they will go without eating.

²¹ No one patches old clothes by sewing on a piece of new cloth. The new piece would shrink and tear a bigger hole.
