John 21:6

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.

And {G1161} he said {G2036} unto them {G846}, Cast {G906} the net {G1350} on {G1519} the right {G1188} side {G3313} of the ship {G4143}, and {G2532} ye shall find {G2147}. They cast {G906} therefore {G3767}, and {G2532} now {G3765} they were {G2480} not {G3765} able {G2480} to draw {G1670} it {G846} for {G575} the multitude {G4128} of fishes {G2486}.

He said to them, “Throw in your net to starboard and you will catch some.” So they threw in their net, and there were so many fish in it that they couldn’t haul it aboard.

He told them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it there, and they were unable to haul it in because of the great number of fish.

And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.
