     5.33       And
(A)        they said 
                   to him,
 (1)                      The disciples of John fast frequently,
                                and
 (2)                      they make a practice of praying,
                                similarily also
 (3)                      do those of the Pharisees
                                but
 (4)                      your disciples eat
                                and
 (5)                      ---- --------- drink.

     5.34       But
(B)        Jesus said
                    to them,
 (6)                       You cannot make the sons of the bridechamber fast,can you?
                                   while the bridegroom is with them,
     5.35                        But
 (7)                       there will be days,
                                 and
                                    when the bridegroom is taken away fromthem,
                                    then
 (8)                       they will fast
                                    in those days.

     5.36       And
(C)        he began speaking a parable
                 to them,
                                                 after having torn off a patch 
                                                          from a new garment
 (9)                                  No one puts it
                                                 on an old garment;
                                            and
                                             if so
(10)                                  he will also tear the new
                                            and
(11)                                  the patch will not match the old.
                                                    from the new

     5.37                                   And
(12)                                  no one puts new wine
                                                 into old wine skins;
                                            and
                                                       if so
(13)                                  the new wine rips open the wine skins,
                                            and
(14)                                  it will be spilled out
                                            and
(15)                                  the wine skins are lost;
     5.38                                   instead
(16)                                  new wine must be poured
                                                   into new wine skins.

     5.39                                    And
                                                 while drinking old wine
(17)                                  no one desires the new
                                             for
(18)                                  he says,
                                                The old is better.
