No man puts a piece of new cloth onto an old garment, for that which is put on to fill it up takes from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit.

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

For every tree is known by its own fruit. For from thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give you.

But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

For a great and effective door is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
