John 21:1-8 ▼

1 After these things Jesus manifested Himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and He manifested Himself in this manner.

2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathaniel of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples.

3 Simon Peter says to them, "I am going away to fish." They say to him, We also are coming with you." They went forth, and entered into a boat; and in that night they caught nothing.

4 But, morning now coming on, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

5 Jesus, therefore, saith to them, "Little children, have ye anything to eat?" They answered Him, "No."

6 And He said to there, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye shall find." They cast it , therefore; and no longer were they able to draw it, for the multitude of the fishes.

7 That disciple, therefore, whom Jesus loved, says to Peter, "It is the Lord!" Simon Peter, therefore, having heard that it was the Lord, girded his outer garment (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea.

8 But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits distant), dragging the net full of fishes.
