Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
βλέπουσιν
˱they˲_/are/_seeing
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀνθρακιὰν κειμένην, καὶ ὀψάριον ἐπικείμενον
/a/_charcoal_fire lying and fish laying_on_‹it›
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “a charcoal fire that Jesus had kindled, and a fish that Jesus had laid on it”
Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
ὀψάριον ἐπικείμενον, καὶ ἄρτον
fish laying_on_‹it› and bread
The words fish and breadare singular nouns. These could mean: (1) Jesus had one fish and one loaf of bread, as in the UST. (2) Jesus had an unknown amount of fish and bread that are referred to collectively. Alternate translation: “some fish laid on it, and some bread loaves”
21:9 Cooked fish and bread were the mainstays of the Galilean diet; Jesus provided the men with breakfast. The charcoal fire is reminiscent of the scene of Peter’s denials (18:18).
