1 After these things, Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself this way. 2 Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, “I’m going fishing.”
They told him, “We are also coming with you.” They immediately went out, and
entered into the boat. That night, they caught nothing. 4 But when day had
already come, Jesus stood on the beach, yet the disciples didn’t know that it
was Jesus. 5 Jesus therefore said to them, “Children, have you They answered him, “No.”
6 He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and
you They cast it therefore, and now they weren’t able to draw it in for the multitude of fish. 7 That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It’s the Lord!”
So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat around
him (for he was naked), and threw himself into the sea. 8 But the other
disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but
about
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fish, one
hundred fifty-three; and even though there were so many, the net wasn’t
torn.
12 Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.”
None of the disciples dared inquire of him, “Who are you?” knowing that it
was the Lord.
13 Then Jesus came and took the bread, gave it to them, and the fish
likewise. 14 This is now the third time that Jesus was revealed to his
disciples, after he had risen from the dead. 15 So when they had eaten
their breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you
love me more than these?”
He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I have affection for you.”
He said to him, “Feed my lambs.” 16 He said to him again a second
time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me?”
He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I have affection for you.”
He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” 17 He said to him the third time,
“Simon, son of Jonah, do you have affection for me?”
Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, “Do you have
affection for me?” He said to him, “Lord, you know everything. You know
that I have affection for you.”
Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. 18 Most assuredly I tell you, when
you were young, you dressed yourself, and walked where you wanted to. But
when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress
you, and carry you where you don’t want to go.”
19 Now he said this, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify
God. When he had said this, he said to him, “Follow me.”
20 Then Peter, turning around, saw a disciple following. This was the
disciple whom Jesus sincerely loved, the one who had also leaned on Jesus’
breast at the supper and asked, “Lord, who is going to betray You?”
21 Peter seeing him, said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”
22 Jesus said to him, “If I desire that he stay until I come, what is
that to you? You follow me.” 23 This saying therefore went out among
