John 21:1-14 - Jesus Appears To The Disciples In Galilee

1 After this Jesus again showed himself to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias, and he did so in this way.

2 Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael, of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples of Jesus were all together.

3 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing.

4 But just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach, though the disciples did not know that it was he.

5 So Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any fish?" They answered, "No."

6 "Throw your net in on the right of the boat," he said to them, "and you will find them." They did so, and they could not haul it in for the quantity of fish in it. 7 Then the disciple who was dear to Jesus said to Peter, "It is the Master!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Master, he put on his clothes, for he had taken them off, and sprang into the sea. 8 The rest of the disciples followed in the boat, for they were not far from land, only about a hundred yards, dragging in the net full of fish. 9 When they landed they saw a charcoal fire burning, with a fish on it, and some bread.

10 Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you have just caught." 11 So Simon Peter got into the boat, and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them, and though there were so many, the net was not torn.

12 Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples dared to ask him who he was, for they knew it was the Master. 13 Jesus went and got the bread and gave it to them, and the fish also.

14 This was the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples, after he had risen from the dead.
