1-3. After this, Jesus appeared again to the disciples, this time at the Tiberias Sea (the Sea of Galilee). This is how he did it: Simon Peter, Thomas (nicknamed “Twin”), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the brothers Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. Simon Peter announced, “I’m going fishing.”
5. Jesus spoke to them: “Good morning! Did you catch anything for breakfast?”They answered, “No.”
6. He said, “Throw the net off the right side of the boat and see what happens.”They did what he said. All of a sudden there were so many fish in it, they weren’t strong enough to pull it in.
10-11. Jesus said, “Bring some of the fish you’ve just caught.” Simon Peter joined them and pulled the net to shore—153 big fish! And even with all those fish, the net didn’t rip.
12. Jesus said, “Breakfast is ready.” Not one of the disciples dared ask, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Master.
