John 21:1-8 ▼

1 After these things Jesus shewed Himself again to the disciples near the sea of Tiberias; and He shewed Himself thus.

2 Simon Peter and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together:

3 and Simon Peter saith unto them, I will go a fishing, and they say to him, We will also go with thee. So they went out, and forthwith entered into a ship: and that night they caught nothing.

4 But when it was morning, Jesus stood on the shore: though the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Young men, have ye any thing to eat?

6 They answered Him, No. And He said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye will find some. So they cast it, and they were not able to draw it up by reason of the multitude of fishes.

7 Whereupon that disciple whom Jesus loved, saith to Peter, "It is the Lord." Then Simon Peter perceiving that it was the Lord, girded on his coat, (for he was stript,) and threw himself into the sea;

8 and the other disciples came in the boat dragging the net of fishes; for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits.
