Jesus Appears by the Sea of Galilee

1

After this, Jesus shewed himself to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he shewed himself after this manner.

2

There were together: Simon Peter and Thomas, who is called Didymus, and Nathanael, who was of Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee and two others of his disciples.

3

Simon Peter saith to them: I go a fishing. They say to him: We also come with thee. And they went forth and entered into the ship: and that night they caught nothing.

4

But when the morning was come, Jesus stood on the shore: yet the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

5

Jesus therefore said to them: Children, have you any meat? They answered him: No.

6

He saith to them: Cast the net on the right side of the ship; and you shall find. They cast therefore: and now they were not able to draw it, for the multitude of fishes.

7

That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved said to Peter: It is the Lord. Simon Peter, when he heard that it was the Lord, girt his coat about him (for he was naked) and cast himself into the sea.

8

But the other disciples came in the ship (for they were not far from the land, but as it were two hundred cubits) dragging the net with fishes.

9

As soon then as they came to land they saw hot coals lying, and a fish laid thereon, and bread.

10

Jesus saith to them: Bring hither of the fishes which you have now caught.

11

Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, one hundred and fifty-three. And although there were so many, the net was not broken.

12

Jesus saith to them: Come and dine. And none of them who were at meat, durst ask him: Who art thou? Knowing that it was the Lord.

13

And Jesus cometh and taketh bread and giveth them: and fish in like manner.

14

This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to his disciples, after he was risen from the dead.
