*
After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tibe '
ri-as ;
and he revealed himself in this way .
*
Simon Peter ,
Thomas called the Twin ,
Nathan '
a-el of Cana in Galilee ,
the sons of Zeb '
edee ,
and two others of his disciples were together .
*
Simon Peter said to them , "
I am going fishing ."
They said to him , "
We will go with you ."
They went out and got into the boat ;
but that night they caught nothing .
*
Just as day was breaking ,
Jesus stood on the beach ;
yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus .
*
Jesus said to them , "
Children ,
have you any fish ?"
They answered him , "
No ."
*
He said to them , "
Cast the net on the right side of the boat ,
and you will find some ."
So they cast it ,
and now they were not able to haul it in ,
for the quantity of fish .
*
That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter , "
It is the Lord !"
When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord ,
he put on his clothes ,
for he was stripped for work ,
and sprang into the sea .
*
But the other disciples came in the boat ,
dragging the net full of fish ,
for they were not far from the land ,
but about a hundred yards off .
*
When they got out on land ,
they saw a charcoal fire there ,
with fish lying on it ,
and bread .
*
Jesus said to them , "
Bring some of the fish that you have just caught ."
*
So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore ,
full of large fish ,
a hundred and fifty-three of them ;
and although there were so many ,
the net was not torn .
