Scriptures

New Living Translation (NLT)

Luke 5
³⁴ Jesus responded, “Do wedding guests fast while celebrating with the groom? Of course not.
³⁵ But someday the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.”
³⁶ Then Jesus gave them this illustration: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and uses it to patch an old garment. For then the new garment would be ruined, and the new patch wouldn’t even match the old garment.
³⁷ “And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the new wine would burst the wineskins, spilling the wine and ruining the skins.
³⁸ New wine must be stored in new wineskins.
³⁹ But no one who drinks the old wine seems to want the new wine. ‘The old is just fine,’ they say.”
Luke 6
¹ One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through some grainfields, his disciples broke off heads of grain, rubbed off the husks in their hands, and ate the grain.
² But some Pharisees said, “Why are you breaking the law by harvesting grain on the Sabbath?”
³ Jesus replied, “Haven’t you read in the Scriptures what David did when he and his companions were hungry?
⁴ He went into the house of God and broke the law by eating the sacred loaves of bread that only the priests can eat. He also gave some to his companions.”
⁵ And Jesus added, “The Son of Man is Lord, even over the Sabbath.”
