36 Y les decía también una parábola: Nadie mete remiendo de paño nuevo en vestido viejo; de otra manera el nuevo rompe, y al viejo no conviene remiendo nuevo.

37 Y nadie echa vino nuevo en cueros viejos; de otra manera el vino nuevo romperá los cueros, y el vino se derramará, y los cueros se perderán.

38 Mas el vino nuevo en cueros nuevos se ha de echar; y lo uno y lo otro se conserva.

39 Y ninguno que bebiere del añejo, quiere luego el nuevo; porque dice: El añejo es mejor.
