* 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 . * When they had dined , Jesus said to Simon Peter , He answered , Yes , Lord , you know that I love you . * A second time he said , He answered , Yes , Lord , you know that I love you . Jesus replied , * A third time he said , Peter , grieved at his asking this question a third time , answered , Lord , you know all things ; you know that I love you . Jesus replied , lont @John:21:18 " /> * This he spoke , signifying by what death he should glorify God . After these words , he said to him , * And Peter turning about , saw the disciple , whom Jesus loved , following , (the same who , leaning on his breast at the supper , had asked who it was , that would betray him .) * Peter seeing him , said to Jesus , And what , Lord , shall become of this man ? * Jesus answered , * Hence arose the rumor among the brethren , that that disciple should not die ; nevertheless , Jesus said not , that he should not die ; but , * It is this disciple , who attests these things , and wrote this account ; and we know that his testimony deserves credit . * There were many other things also performed by Jesus , which , were they to be severally related , I imagine , the world itself could not contain the volumes that would be written .
