And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.

14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.

19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.

20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?

23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.

25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.

27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.

28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.

30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.

32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

33 And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?

34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

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

36 And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old.

37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.

38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.

耶稣呼召早先的门徒(A)

耶稣站在革尼撒勒湖边,众人拥挤他,要听 神的道。 他见有两只船靠在湖边,打鱼的人却离开船,洗网去了。 有一只船是西门的,耶稣就上去,请他把船撑开,稍微离岸,就坐下,在船上教导众人。 他讲完了,对西门说:“把船开到水深的地方下网打鱼。” 西门说:“老师,我们整夜劳累,并没有打着什么。但依从你的话,我就下网。” 他们下了网,圈住许多鱼,网险些裂开, 就招手叫另一只船上的同伴来帮助。他们就来,把鱼装满了两只船,船甚至要沉下去。 西门‧彼得看见,就俯伏在耶稣膝前,说:“主啊,离开我,我是个罪人。” 他和一切跟他一起的人对打到了这一网的鱼都很惊讶。 10 他的伙伴西庇太的儿子雅各约翰,也是这样。耶稣对西门说:“不要怕!从今以后,你要得人了。” 11 他们把两只船靠了岸,就撇下所有的,跟从了耶稣。

洁净麻风病人(B)

12 有一回,耶稣在一个城里,有人满身长了麻风,看见他,就俯伏在地,求他说:“主啊,你若肯,你能使我洁净。” 13 耶稣伸手摸他,说:“我肯,你洁净了吧!”麻风病立刻离开了他。 14 耶稣吩咐他:“你不可告诉任何人,只要去,把自己给祭司察看,又因为你已经洁净,要照摩西所吩咐的献上祭物,作为证据给众人看。” 15 但耶稣的名声越发传扬出去。有一大群人聚集来听道,也希望耶稣医治他们的病。 16 耶稣却退到旷野去祷告。

治好瘫子(C)

17 有一天,耶稣教导人,有法利赛人和律法教师在旁边坐着;他们是从加利利各乡村、犹太耶路撒冷来的。主的能力与耶稣同在,使他能治好病人。 18 这时,有些人用褥子抬着一个瘫子,要把他抬进去放在耶稣面前, 19 却因人多,找不出法子抬进去,就上了房顶,从瓦间把他连褥子缒到当中,在耶稣面前。 20 耶稣见他们的信心,就说:“朋友,你的罪赦了。” 21 文士和法利赛人就开始议论说:“这个人是谁,竟说亵渎的话?除了 神一位之外,谁能赦罪呢?” 22 耶稣知道他们所议论的,就回答他们说:“你们心里为什么议论呢? 23 说‘你的罪赦了’,或说‘你起来行走’,哪一样容易呢? 24 但要让你们知道,人子在地上有赦罪的权柄。”他就对瘫子说:“我吩咐你,起来!拿你的褥子回家去吧。” 25 那人当着众人面前立刻起来,拿了他所躺卧的褥子回家去,归荣耀给 神。 26 众人都惊奇,也归荣耀给 神,并且满心惧怕,说:“我们今日看见不寻常的事了!”

呼召利未(D)

27 这些事以后,耶稣出去,看见一个税吏,名叫利未,在税关坐着,就对他说:“来跟从我!” 28 他就撇下所有的,起来跟从耶稣。 29 利未在自己家里为耶稣大摆宴席,有一大群税吏和别的人与他们一同坐席。 30 法利赛人和文士就向耶稣的门徒发怨言说:“你们为什么跟税吏和罪人一同吃喝呢?” 31 耶稣回答他们:“健康的人用不着医生;有病的人才用得着。 32 我不是来召义人悔改,而是召罪人悔改。”

禁食的问题(E)

33 他们对耶稣说:“约翰的门徒常常禁食祈祷,法利赛人的门徒也是这样,惟独跟你在一起的又吃又喝。” 34 耶稣对他们说:“新郎和宾客在一起的时候,你们怎么能叫宾客禁食呢? 35 但日子将到,新郎要被带走,那些日子他们就要禁食了。”

36 耶稣又讲一个比喻,对他们说:“没有人把新衣服撕下一块来补在旧衣服上,若是这样,会把新的撕裂了,并且所撕下来的那块新的和旧的也不相称。 37 也没有人把新酒装在旧皮袋里;若是这样,新酒会胀破皮袋,酒就漏出来,皮袋也糟蹋了。 38 相反地,新酒必须装在新皮袋里。 39 没有人喝了陈酒又想喝新的;他总说陈的好。”

Ang Pagtawag ni Jesus sa Kanyang mga Unang Tagasunod(A)

Isang araw, nakatayo si Jesus sa baybayin ng Lawa ng Genesaret, at nagsisiksikan sa kanya ang napakaraming tao upang makinig ng salita ng Dios. May nakita si Jesus na dalawang bangka sa baybayin. Nagbabaan na sa bangka ang mga mangingisda at naghuhugas na ng mga lambat nila. Sumakay siya sa isang bangka at nakiusap kay Simon na may-ari ng bangka, na itulak iyon nang kaunti sa tubig. Naupo si Jesus sa bangka at nagturo sa mga tao.

Pagkatapos niyang mangaral, sinabi niya kay Simon, “Pumalaot kayo at ihulog ang mga lambat ninyo, at makakahuli kayo ng isda.” Sumagot si Simon, “Guro, magdamag po kaming nangisda pero wala kaming nahuli. Pero dahil sinabi ninyo, ihuhulog ko ulit ang lambat.” Kaya pumalaot sila at inihulog ang lambat. At napakaraming isda ang nahuli nila hanggang sa halos masira na ang kanilang lambat. Kaya kinawayan nila ang kanilang mga kasama na nasa isa pang bangka para magpatulong. Tinulungan sila ng mga ito at napuno nila ng isda ang dalawang bangka, hanggang sa halos lumubog na sila. Nang makita iyon ni Simon Pedro, lumuhod siya sa paanan ni Jesus at sinabi, “Lumayo po kayo sa akin, Panginoon, dahil makasalanan ako.” Ganito ang naging reaksiyon niya, dahil labis siyang namangha, pati na ang mga kasamahan niya, sa dami ng nahuli nila. 10 Namangha rin sina Santiago at Juan na mga anak ni Zebedee, na mga kasosyo ni Simon. Sinabi ni Jesus kay Simon, “Huwag kang matakot. Mula ngayon, hindi na isda ang huhulihin mo kundi mga tao na upang madala sila sa Dios.” 11 Nang maitabi na nila ang kanilang mga bangka, iniwan nila ang lahat at sumunod kay Jesus.

Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Isang Lalaking May Malubhang Sakit sa Balat(B)

12 Isang araw, nang nasa isang bayan si Jesus, lumapit sa kanya ang isang lalaking may malubhang sakit sa balat,[a] Lumuhod ito sa harap niya at nagmakaawa na pagalingin siya. Sinabi niya, “Panginoon, kung gusto nʼyo po, mapapagaling nʼyo ako upang maituring akong malinis.” 13 Hinawakan siya ni Jesus at sinabi, “Gusto ko. Luminis ka!” At gumaling agad ang kanyang sakit. 14 Sinabihan siya ni Jesus, “Huwag mo itong sasabihin kahit kanino. Sa halip, pumunta ka sa pari at magpasuri. Pagkatapos, maghandog ka ayon sa iniutos ni Moises bilang patunay na malinis ka na.” 15 Pero lalo pang kumalat ang balita tungkol kay Jesus, kaya dumating ang napakarami pang mga tao upang makinig sa mga aral niya at upang mapagaling sa kanilang mga sakit. 16 Pero laging pumupunta si Jesus sa ilang at doon nananalangin.

Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Isang Paralitiko(C)

17 Isang araw habang nangangaral si Jesus, may mga Pariseo at mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan na nakaupo malapit sa kanya. Nanggaling ang mga ito sa ibaʼt ibang bayan ng Galilea at Judea, at maging sa Jerusalem. Taglay ni Jesus ang kapangyarihan ng Panginoon para magpagaling ng mga may sakit. 18 May mga taong dumating na buhat-buhat ang isang lalaking paralitiko na nasa higaan. Sinikap nilang ipasok ito sa bahay upang ilapit kay Jesus. 19 Pero hindi sila makapasok dahil sa dami ng tao. Kaya umakyat sila sa bubong at binutasan ito. Pagkatapos, ibinaba nila sa harap ni Jesus ang paralitikong nakahiga sa kanyang higaan. 20 Nang makita ni Jesus ang kanilang pananampalataya, sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Kaibigan,[b] pinatawad na ang mga kasalanan mo.”

21 Sinabi ng mga Pariseo at ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan sa kanilang sarili: “Sino kaya ang taong ito na lumalapastangan sa Dios? Walang makakapagpatawad ng kasalanan kundi ang Dios lang!” 22 Pero alam ni Jesus ang iniisip nila, kaya tinanong niya ang mga ito, “Bakit kayo nag-iisip ng ganyan? 23 Alin ba ang mas madaling sabihin: ‘Pinatawad na ang iyong mga kasalanan,’ o, ‘Tumayo ka at lumakad’? 24 Ngayon, papatunayan ko sa inyo sa pamamagitan ng pagpapagaling sa taong ito na ako, na Anak ng Tao, ay may kapangyarihan dito sa lupa na magpatawad ng mga kasalanan.” At sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Tumayo ka, buhatin mo ang higaan mo at umuwi!” 25 Tumayo agad ang paralitiko sa harap ng lahat, binuhat nga niya ang kanyang higaan at umuwing nagpupuri sa Dios. 26 Namangha ang lahat at pinuri nila ang Dios. Sinabi nila, “Kahanga-hanga ang mga bagay na nakita natin ngayon!”

Tinawag ni Jesus si Levi(D)

27 Pagkatapos noon, umalis si Jesus at nakita niya ang maniningil ng buwis na ang pangalan ay Levi. Nakaupo siya sa lugar na pinagbabayaran ng buwis. Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanya, “Sumunod ka sa akin.” 28 Tumayo si Levi, iniwan ang lahat at sumunod kay Jesus.

29 Naghanda si Levi sa kanyang bahay ng malaking handaan bilang parangal kay Jesus. Maraming maniningil ng buwis at iba pang mga tao ang dumalo at nakisalo sa kanila. 30 Nang makita ito ng mga Pariseo at ng mga kasama nilang mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan, nagreklamo sila sa mga tagasunod ni Jesus. Sinabi nila, “Bakit kayo kumakain at umiinom na kasama ang mga maniningil ng buwis at iba pang mga makasalanan?” 31 Sinagot sila ni Jesus, “Ang mga taong walang sakit ay hindi nangangailangan ng doktor, kundi ang mga may sakit. 32 Hindi ako naparito upang tawagin ang mga taong matuwid sa sarili nilang paningin, kundi ang mga makasalanan upang magsisi sila sa kanilang mga kasalanan.”

Ang Tanong tungkol sa Pag-aayuno(E)

33 May mga tao roon na nagtanong kay Jesus, “Ang mga tagasunod ni Juan at ng mga Pariseo ay madalas mag-ayuno at manalangin. Bakit ang mga tagasunod mo ay panay lang ang kain at inom?” 34 Sumagot si Jesus, “Maaari bang hindi kumain ang mga panauhin sa kasalan habang kasama pa nila ang lalaking ikakasal? Siyempre, hindi! 35 Ngunit darating ang araw na kukunin sa kanila ang lalaking ikakasal, at saka sila mag-aayuno.”

36 Sinabi rin ni Jesus sa kanila ang mga talinghaga na ito: “Hindi ginugupit ang bagong damit para ipangtagpi sa luma. Kapag ginawa ito, masisira ang bagong damit, at ang tagping bago ay hindi babagay sa lumang damit. 37 Wala ring naglalagay ng bagong alak sa lumang sisidlang-balat, dahil puputok ang sisidlan at matatapon ang alak, at ang sisidlan ay hindi na mapapakinabangan pa. 38 Sa halip, inilalagay ang bagong alak sa bagong sisidlang-balat. 39 Wala ring taong nakainom na ng lumang alak ang maghahangad ng bagong alak, dahil para sa kanya, mas masarap ang luma.”

Four Fishermen Called as Disciples(A)

So (B)it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to (C)hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret, and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets. Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He (D)sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, (E)“Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”

But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught (F)nothing; nevertheless (G)at Your word I will let down the net.” And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking. So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, (H)“Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!”

For he and all who were with him were (I)astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken; 10 and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid. (J)From now on you will catch men.” 11 So when they had brought their boats to land, (K)they [a]forsook all and followed Him.

Jesus Cleanses a Leper(L)

12 (M)And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of (N)leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and [b]implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13 Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” (O)Immediately the leprosy left him. 14 (P)And He charged him to tell no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, (Q)just as Moses commanded.”

15 However, (R)the report went around concerning Him all the more; and (S)great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. 16 (T)So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and (U)prayed.

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic(V)

17 Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present [c]to heal them. 18 (W)Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him. 19 And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst (X)before Jesus.

20 When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

21 (Y)And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? (Z)Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22 But when Jesus (AA)perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’? 24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, (AB)“I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

25 Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, (AC)glorifying God. 26 And they were all amazed, and they (AD)glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!”

Matthew the Tax Collector(AE)

27 (AF)After these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, (AG)“Follow Me.” 28 So he left all, rose up, and (AH)followed Him.

29 (AI)Then Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And (AJ)there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them. 30 [d]And their scribes and the Pharisees [e]complained against His disciples, saying, (AK)“Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31 Jesus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 (AL)I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

Jesus Is Questioned About Fasting(AM)

33 Then they said to Him, (AN)“Why[f] do the disciples of John fast often and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?”

34 And He said to them, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the (AO)bridegroom is with them? 35 But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.”

36 (AP)Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one [g]puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old. 37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. 38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, [h]and both are preserved. 39 And no one, having drunk old wine, [i]immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is [j]better.’ ”

呼召四個門徒(A)

耶穌站在革尼撒勒湖邊,眾人擁擠他,要聽 神的道。 他看見兩隻船停在湖邊,漁夫離開船洗網去了。 他上了西門的那一隻船,請他撐開,離岸不遠,就坐下,從船上教導眾人。 講完了,就對西門說:“把船開到水深的地方,下網打魚!” 西門說:“主啊,我們整夜勞苦,毫無所得,不過,我願照你的話下網。” 他們下了網,就圈住很多魚,網幾乎裂開, 就招呼另外那隻船上的同伴來幫助,他們就來把兩隻船裝滿,甚至船要下沉。 西門.彼得看見這種情景,就俯伏在耶穌膝前,說:“主啊,離開我,因為我是個罪人。” 他和跟他在一起的人,因這網所打的魚,都十分驚駭。 10 西門的夥伴,西庇太的兒子雅各、約翰也是這樣。耶穌對西門說:“不要怕!從今以後,你要作得人的漁夫了。” 11 他們把兩隻船攏了岸,撇下一切,跟從了耶穌。

治好痲風病人(B)

12 有一次,耶穌在一個城裡,突然有一個滿身痲風的人看見他,就把臉伏在地上,求他說:“主啊!如果你肯,必能使我潔淨。” 13 耶穌伸手摸他,說:“我肯,你潔淨了吧!”痲風立刻離開了他。 14 耶穌囑咐他不可告訴任何人,“你只要去給祭司檢查,並且照著摩西所規定的,為你得潔淨獻祭,好向大家作證。” 15 但他的名聲卻越發傳揚出去,成群的人來聚集,要聽道,並且要使他們的疾病痊愈。 16 耶穌卻退到曠野去禱告。

治好癱子(C)

17 有一天,耶穌正在教導人,法利賽人和律法教師也坐在那裡,他們是從加利利和猶太各鄉村,並耶路撒冷來的;主的能力與他同在,叫他能醫病。 18 有人用床抬著一個癱子,想送進去,放在耶穌跟前。 19 因為人多,沒有辦法進去,就上了房頂,從瓦間把癱子和床往當中縋下去,正在耶穌跟前。 20 他看見他們的信心,就說:“朋友(“朋友”原文作“人”),你的罪赦了。” 21 經學家和法利賽人就議論起來,說:“這人是誰,竟然說僭妄的話?除 神一位以外,誰能赦罪呢?” 22 耶穌知道他們的議論,就對他們說:“你們心裡為甚麼議論呢? 23 說:‘你的罪赦了’,或說:‘起來行走’,哪一樣容易呢? 24 然而為了要你們知道,人子在地上有赦罪的權柄,(他就對癱子說:)我吩咐你,起來,拿起你的床,回家去吧。” 25 那人立刻當眾起來,拿著他躺過的床,頌讚 神,回家去了。 26 眾人都驚奇,頌讚 神,並且十分懼怕,說:“我們今天看見了不平常的事。”

呼召利未(D)

27 事後,耶穌出去,看見一個稅吏,名叫利未,坐在稅關那裡,就對他說:“來跟從我!” 28 他就撇下一切,起來跟從了耶穌。 29 利未在自己家裡,為他大擺筵席,有許多稅吏和別的人一起吃飯。 30 法利賽人和經學家埋怨他的門徒,說:“你們為甚麼跟稅吏和罪人一起吃喝呢?” 31 耶穌回答:“健康的人不需要醫生,有病的人才需要。 32 我來不是要召義人,而是要召罪人悔改。”

新舊的比喻(E)

33 他們說:“約翰的門徒常常禁食、祈禱,法利賽人的門徒也是這樣,而你的門徒卻又吃又喝。” 34 耶穌說:“新郎跟賓客在一起的時候,你們怎麼可以叫賓客禁食呢? 35 但日子到了,新郎要被取去,離開他們,那一天他們就要禁食了。” 36 他又對他們設個比喻說:“沒有人會從新衣服撕下一塊布,補在舊衣服上,如果這樣,不但新衣服撕破了,而且新撕下的布,也和舊的不調和。 37 也沒有人會把新酒裝在舊皮袋裡;如果這樣,新酒就會把皮袋脹破,不但酒漏掉,皮袋也損壞了; 38 人總是把新酒裝在新皮袋裡。 39 喝慣陳酒的人,就不想喝新酒,他總說陳的好。”
