St Luke 5:33-37 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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

34. To whom he said: Can you make the children of the bridegroom fast, whilst the bridegroom is with them?

35. But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then shall they fast in those days.

36. And he spoke also a similitude to them: That no man putteth a piece from a new garment upon an old garment; otherwise he both rendeth the new, and the piece taken from the new agreeth not with the old.

37. And no man putteth new wine into old bottle: otherwise the new wine will break the bottles, and it will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost.
