Jesus Appears by the Sea of Tiberias

Later by the Sea of Tiberias,[fn] Jesus again revealed Himself to the disciples. He made [Himself] known in this way: 2 Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus,[fn] Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the [sons] of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter told them,“I am going fishing.”

“We vvv will go with you,” they said [So] they went out and immediately[fn] got into the boat, [but] caught nothing that night.

4 

Early in the morning Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples {did} not recognize that it was Jesus. 5 So [He] called out to them,“Children, vvv do you have any fish?”

“No,” they answered

6 

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

7 

Then [the] disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter,“It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on [his] outer garment (for he had removed it . . . ) and jumped into the sea. 8 The other disciples came [ashore] in the boat. They dragged in the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, only about a hundred yards

9 

When they landed they saw a charcoal fire there [with] fish on it, and [some] bread.

10 

Jesus told them,“Bring [some] of the fish vvv you have just caught.” 11 [So] Simon Peter went aboard and dragged the net vvv vvv ashore. [It was] full of large fish, 153 {} but even with so many, the net vvv was not torn.

12 

“Come, have breakfast,” Jesus said to them. None of the disciples dared to ask Him,“Who are You?” They knew it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then[fn] came and took the bread and gave [it] to them, and [He did] the same with the fish.

14 

This [was] now the third time [that] Jesus appeared to His disciples[fn] after He was raised from [the] dead.
