Book 43 : JOHN - Chapter 021
021:001
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus,
and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and
two other of his disciples
021:002
Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto
him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a
ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing
021:003
But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore:
but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus
021:004
Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They
answered him, No
021:005
And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the
ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they
were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes
021:006
Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It
is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord,
he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and
did cast himself into the sea
021:007
And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were
not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,)
dragging the net with fishes
021:008
As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of
coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread
021:009
Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now
caught
021:010
Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great
fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were
so many, yet was not the net broken
021:011
Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the
disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the
Lord
021:012
Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish
likewise
021:013
This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his
disciples, after that he was risen from the dead
021:014
So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son
of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him,
Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my lambs
021:015
He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas,
lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest
that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep
021:016
He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest
thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third
time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest
all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto
him, Feed my sheep
021:017
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou
girdest thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when
thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and
another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest
not
021:018
This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God.
And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me
021:019
Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved
following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and
said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee
021:020
Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man
do
021:021
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come,
what is that to thee? follow thou me
021:022
Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that
disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall
not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is
that to thee
021:023
This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and
wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true
021:024
And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the
which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that
even the world itself could not contain the books that should
be written. Amen.
