Luke 5:36

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
He also told a parable to them. “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old garment, or else he will tear the new, and also the piece from the new will not match the old.
World English Bible (WEB)
And{G1161} he spake{G3004}{(G5707)} also{G2532} a parable{G3850} unto{G4314} them{G846};{G3754} No man{G3762} putteth{G1911}{(G5719)} a piece{G1915} of a new{G2537} garment{G2440} upon{G1909} an old{G2440}{G3820}; if otherwise, then{G1490} both{G2532} the new{G2537} maketh a rent{G4977}{(G5719)}, and{G2532} the piece{G1915} that was taken out of{G575} the new{G2537} agreeth{G4856}{(G5719)} not{G3756} with the old{G3820}.
Strong's King James
(36) Now, He also was telling them a riddle that, "Nobody tears a cloth-patch from a new garment and puts it on an old garment, otherwise both will tear the new and the cloth-patch from the new won't match the old."
The F.O.G*
[36] He then shared a parable to illustrate His point: "No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment to patch an old one. If they did, they would ruin the new garment and the patch from the new wouldn't match the old.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
And he spake also a simile unto them—‘No one a patch of new clothing doth put on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also doth make a rent, and with the old the patch doth not agree, that is from the new.
