Matthew 9:14-16

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁴ ¶ Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but thy disciples do not fast?

¹⁵ And Jesus said unto them, Can the sons of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they shall fast.

¹⁶ No one mends an old garment with a piece of new cloth, for that patch takes from the garment, and the rent is made worse.
