021:002 Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of
Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of
the Master's disciples.
021:003 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." "We will go too,"
said they. So they set out and went on board their boat;
but they caught nothing that night.
021:004 When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach,
though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
021:005 He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any
food there?" "No," they answered.
021:006 "Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you will find fish." So they threw the net in, and now they could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
021:007 This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is the Master." Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words, "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt— for he had not been wearing it—put on his girdle, and sprang into the water.
021:008 But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they were not far from land—only about a hundred yards off), dragging the net full of fish.
021:009 As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there,
with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
021:010 Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they
had just caught.
021:011 So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore
full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there
were so many, the net had not broken.
