*
Afterward ,
Jesus again appeared to the disciples ,
at the sea of Tiberias ;
and in this manner he appeared .
*
Simon Peter and Thomas ,
that is ,
Didymus ,
Nathanael of Cana ,
in Galilee ,
the sons of Zebedee ,
and two other disciples of Jesus ,
being together ,
*
Simon Peter said ,
I am going a-fishing .
They answered ,
We will go with you .
Immediately they went ,
and got aboard a bark ,
but that night caught nothing .
*
In the morning Jesus stood on the shore ;
the disciples ,
however ,
knew not that it was Jesus .
*
Jesus said to them ,
They answered ,
No .
*
cried he ,
They did so ,
but were not able to draw it ,
by reason of the multitude of fishes .
*
Then that disciple whom Jesus loved ,
said to Peter ,
It is the Master .
Simon Peter ,
hearing that it was the Master ,
girt on his upper garment (
which was laid aside )
and threw himself into the sea .
*
But the other disciples came in the boat , (
for they were not farther from land than about two hundred cubits ,)
dragging the net ,
with the fishes .
*
When they came ashore ,
they saw a fire burning ,
and a fish laid on it ,
and bread .
*
Jesus said to them ,
*
Simon Peter went back ,
and drew the net to land ,
full of large fishes ,
a hundred and fifty-three ;
and the net was not rent ,
notwithstanding the number .
*
Jesus said to them ,
Meantime none of the disciples ventured to ask him ,
Who are you ?
knowing that it was the Master .
*
Jesus drew near ,
and taking bread and fish ,
distributed among them .
*
This is the third time that Jesus appeared to his disciples ,
after his resurrection .
