1 The next time the disciples saw Jesus was at the Sea of Tiberias Galilee . This is how Jesus showed himself to them.
2 Some of the disciples were in one place. They were Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples of Jesus.
3 Simon Peter said to the others, I am going fishing. The others said, We are going with you also. They went out in a boat right away. That night they caught nothing.
4 Early in the morning, Jesus was standing there by the sea. The disciples did not know it was Jesus.
5 He said to them, My children, did you catch any fish? They answered, No.
6 He said to them, Throw out your net on the right side of the boat, then you will catch some. They threw out their net and caught many fish, so that they were not able to bring in the net.
7 That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! As soon as Simon Peter heard it was the Lord, he put on his coat and his belt. He had taken off some clothes to work. Then he jumped into the water.
8 The other disciples came in a small boat. They were pulling the net. It was full of fish. They were not far from the land, only about a hundred yards.
9 When they came to the land, they saw a small fire. Fish and some bread lay on the fire.
10 Jesus said to them, Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.
11 Simon Peter went to the boat. He pulled the net to land. It was full of big fish. There were a hundred and fifty three fish. But even with so many fish the net did not break.
