耶稣又设一个比喻，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，就把新的撕破了，并且所撕下来的那块新的，和旧的也不相称。

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.

没有人把新布缝在旧衣服上，恐怕所补上的新布带坏了旧衣服，破的就更大了。

No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.

他说：“凡文士受教作天国的门徒，就象一个家主从他库里拿出新旧的东西来。”

Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.

没有人把新布补在旧衣服上；因为所补上的反带坏了那衣服，破得就更大了。

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

你们要向天举目，观看下地；因为天必象烟云消散，地必如衣服渐渐旧了，其上的居民，也要如此死亡(“如此死亡”或作“象蠓虫死亡”)，惟有我的救恩永远长存，我的公义也不废掉。

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
