The miracle of the net full of fish

Yhn 21:1–14

21:1 The miracle of the net full of fish

21 After all this, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) revealed himself again to his apprentices at Lake Galil. It happened like this: 2 Shim’on (Simon) Kefa (Peter; Grk. Petros), Toma (Thomas) nicknamed ‘Twin’, Netanel (Nathanael) from Kana in Galil, the sons of Zavday (Grk. Zebedaios), and two other apprentices had gathered together 3 when Shim’on Kefa said that he was going fishing and the others said that they’d join him.

So they went off and got in the boat, but they didn’t catch anything that night.[ref]

4 When the dawn was approaching, Yeshua was standing there on the shore, but they didn’t know that it was him. 5 He called out, “Hey, young fellas. Don’t you have any fish?”

“None.” they answered.

6 Then he said, “Throw the net out over the right side of the boat and you’ll find some.” So they did it and they caught so many fish that the net was too heavy to pull back in.[ref]

7 Now the apprentice that Yeshua loved said to Kefa, “It’s the master!” When Shim’on Kefa heard that, he put on his robe (because he didn’t have it on), and jumped overboard into the lake. 8 The other apprentices followed in the little boat dragging the net behind them because they were only about 100m out from the shore. 9 When they went up the beach, they saw some bread there and a charcoal fire with fish cooking on it 10 and Yeshua told them, “Bring some of the fish that you just caught.”

11 So Shim’on Kefa went and dragged the net up onto the beach. Amazingly it hadn’t torn even though it contained 153 large fish. 12 Then Yeshua said, “Now, come and have breakfast.” But none of the apprentices dared to ask who he was, because they figured it must be the master. 13 Yeshua brought the bread to them and shared it around, and then likewise for the fish.

14 This was now the third time that Yeshua had appeared to his apprentices since he’d come back to life.

21 After these things, Yaʸsous revealed himself again to _the apprentices/followers at the sea of_ the _Tiberios, and he _revealed himself thus:

2 Simōn Petros, and Thōmas which being _called Didumos/[twin], and Nathanaaʸl the one from Kana of_ the _Galilaia/(Gālīl), and the sons the of _Zebedaios, and two others of the apprentices/followers of _him.
were together.

3 Simōn Petros is _saying to _them:
I _am _going to _be _fishing.
They _are _saying to _him:
We are_ also _coming with you.
They _came _out and they _boarded into the boat, and at that the night they _caught nothing.

4 But in _the _morning already becoming, Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) stood on the shore, however the apprentices/followers had_ not _known that it _is Yaʸsous.

5 therefore Yaʸsous is _saying to _them:
Little _children, you _all _are_ not _having any fish?
They _answered to _him:
No.

6 And he said to _them:
Cast the net to the right side of _the boat, and you _all _will _be _finding them.
Therefore they _throw, and was_ no _longer _able to _drag it because _of the multitude of _the fishes.

7 Therefore the apprentice/follower that whom the Yaʸsous was _loving is _saying to_ the _Petros:
It _is the master.
Therefore Simōn Petros having _heard that it _is the master, girded his outer _garment, because/for he _was naked, and throw himself into the sea.

8 And the other apprentices/followers in _the little _boat came, because/for they _were not far from the land, but from about two _hundred cubits dragging the net with _the fishes.

9 Therefore when they _got _out on the land, they _are _seeing a_charcoal _fire lying, and fish laying _on it, and bread.

10 The Yaʸsous is _saying to _them:
Bring from the fish which you _all _caught now.

11 Therefore Simōn Petros went _up, and dragged the net to the land full of_ large _fishes a_hundred fifty three, but being so _many, the net was_ not _torn.

12 The Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) is _saying to _them:
Come, eat _breakfast.
But no _one of _the apprentices/followers was _daring to _question him, who are You?
Having _known that it _is the master.

13 Yaʸsous is _coming, and is _taking the bread and is _giving to _them, and the fish likewise.

14 This now the_third time Yaʸsous was _revealed to _the apprentices/followers, having _been _raised from the_dead.
