Moving and living with the believers
21:1-14
John 21
:1
21:1
1After these things Jesus
2amanifested Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. And He manifested
Himself in this way:
John 21
:2
21:2
Simon Peter and
aThomas, called
1Didymus, and
bNathanael from Cana of Galilee and the
csons of Zebedee and two others of His disciples were
there together.
John 21
:3
21:3
Simon Peter said to them, I am
1going afishing. They said to him, We also are coming with you. They went forth and
bgot into the boat, and that night they caught
2nothing.
John 21
:4
21:4
Now as soon as the morning broke, Jesus stood on the shore; however the disciples did
anot know that it was Jesus.
John 21
:5
21:5
Then Jesus said to them,
aLittle children, you do not have any
1bfish to eat, do you? They answered Him,
2No.
John 21
:6
21:6
And He said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find
some. They cast therefore, and they were no longer able to haul it
in because of the
1abundance of fish.
John 21
:7
21:7
Then that
adisciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! Therefore when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment around himself, for he
1was naked; and he threw himself into the sea.
John 21
:8
21:8
But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about
1two hundred cubits away, dragging the net of fish.
John 21
:9
21:9
Then when they got out onto the land, they saw a fire of coals laid
there, and
1afish lying on
it and
bbread.
John 21
:10
21:10
Jesus said to them, Bring
some of the fish that you have just now caught.
John 21
:11
21:11
Simon Peter therefore went up and hauled the net to the land full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there were so many, the net was not torn.
John 21
:12
21:12
Jesus said to them,
1Come and have breakfast. But none of the disciples dared to inquire of Him, Who are you? knowing that it was the Lord.
John 21
:13
21:13
Jesus came and
atook the
1bread and gave
it to them, and the fish likewise.
John 21
:14
21:14
This was now the
athird time that Jesus was manifested to the disciples after He had been
braised from the dead.

Working and walking with the believers
21:15-25
John 21
:15
21:15
Then when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter,
1Simon,
son of John, do you
2love Me
amore than these? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I
3love You. He said to him,
4bFeed My
5lambs.
John 21
:16
21:16
He said to him again a second time, Simon,
son of John, do you love Me? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him,
1aShepherd My
2sheep.
John 21
:17
21:17
He said to him the
1third time, Simon,
son of John, do you love Me? Peter was grieved that He said to him the third time, Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You
2aknow ball things; You know that I love You. Jesus said to him,
cFeed My sheep.
John 21
:18
21:18
Truly, truly, I say to you, When you were younger, you girded yourself and
1awalked where you wished; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry
you where you do not wish
to go.
John 21
:19
21:19
Now this He said,
asignifying by what
1bkind of death he would glorify God. And when He had said this, He said to him,
cFollow Me.
John 21
:20
21:20
Peter, turning around, saw the
adisciple whom Jesus loved following, who also
breclined on His breast at the supper, and said, Lord, who is the one betraying You?
John 21
:21
21:21
Peter therefore, seeing him, said to Jesus, Lord, and what about this man?
John 21
:22
21:22
Jesus said to him, If I want him to
aremain until I
bcome, what
is that to you? You
1cfollow Me.
John 21
:23
21:23
This word therefore went out among the brothers, that that disciple would not die, yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, If I want him to remain until I
1come, what
is that to you?
John 21
:24
21:24
This is the disciple who
atestifies concerning these things, and the one who has written these things; and we know that his testimony is true.
John 21
:25
21:25
And there are also
1amany other things which Jesus did, which, if they were written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself could contain the books written.
