THE PRECEPTL OF JESUS.
9
when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then
shall they fast. 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. Neither
■do men put new wine into old bottles : else the bottles
break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles
perish : but they put new wine into new bottles, and
both are preserved.
* Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of
wolves : be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless
as doves. But beware of men : for they will deliver you
up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their
synagogues ; and ye shall be brought before governors
and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and
the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, take no
thought how or what ye shall speak : for it shall be given
you inthat same hour what ye shall speak. For it is not
ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which
speaketh in you. And the brother shall deliver up the
brother to death, and the father the child : and the
children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them
to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for
my name's sake : but he that endureth to the end shall
be saved. But when they persecute you in this city, flee
ye into another : for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not
have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of mah>b$
come. The disciple is not above his master, nor the
servant above his lord. It is enough for the disciple
that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If
they have called-the master of the house Beelzebub, how
much more shall they call them of his household ?
