rsv Luke:5:1-11
rsv@Luke:5:1 @ While the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennes'aret.
rsv@Luke:5:2 @ And he saw two boats by the lake; but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.
rsv@Luke:5:3 @ Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat.
rsv@Luke:5:4 @ And when he had ceased speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch."
rsv@Luke:5:5 @ And Simon answered, "Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets."
rsv@Luke:5:6 @ And when they had done this, they enclosed a great shoal of fish; and as their nets were breaking,
rsv@Luke:5:7 @ they beckoned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
rsv@Luke:5:8 @ But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord."
rsv@Luke:5:9 @ For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the catch of fish which they had taken;
rsv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, sons of Zeb'edee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid; henceforth you will be catching men."
rsv@Luke:5:11 @ And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.
