Now if he does, he will proceed both tearing the new one, and the patch from the new one will not continue sound together (being in symphony; = matching) with the old one. ³⁷ "Furthermore, no one normally puts new wine into old wineskins (skin bottles). Now if he does, the new wine will progressively burst and tear the wineskins, and it will proceed being spilled out, and also the wineskins will continue destroyed. ³⁸ "To the contrary, new wine [is] drained into and stored in new wineskins (skin bottles), and then both are preserved. ³⁹ "Also, no one continues wanting new (young [wine]) after immediately drinking [the] old (or: aged), for he is then saying, "The old (or: aged) continues being useful and well adapted to it purpose, and is just fine!"
