KJV ORIGINAL
No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Nobody patches old clothes with brand new fabric — the new piece will just shrink and rip away from the old stuff, making an even bigger hole than before.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
You can't fix old problems with brand new solutions that don't fit.
