6 He told them, |Throw your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.| So they threw the net, and were not able to pull it in because of the large number of fish.

7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, |It is the Lord!| So Simon Peter, when he heard that it was the Lord, tucked in his outer garment (for he had nothing on underneath it), and plunged into the sea.

8 Meanwhile the other disciples came with the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, only about a hundred yards.

9 When they got out on the beach, they saw a charcoal fire ready with a fish placed on it, and bread.

10 Jesus said, |Bring some of the fish you have just now caught.|

11 So Simon Peter went aboard and pulled the net to shore. It was full of large fish, one hundred fifty-three, but although there were so many, the net was not torn.
