Luke 5:9

Luke 5:1-11

¹Now it happened, while the crowd was pressing in on him and listening to the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, ²and he saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing the nets. ³And getting into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, he asked him to put out a little from the land; and sitting down, he was teaching the crowds from the boat. ⁴And when he had stopped speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.” ⁵And Simon answered and said, “Master, through the whole night we worked hard and caught nothing; but at your word I will let down the nets.” ⁶And when they had done this, they enclosed a great number of fish, and their nets were tearing. ⁷And they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; and they came and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking. ⁸But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Go away from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.” ⁹For amazement had seized him and all those with him at the catch of fish that they had taken, ¹⁰and likewise also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching people.” ¹¹And when they had brought the boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

Matthew 4:18-22

¹⁸And walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. ¹⁹And he says to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of people.” ²⁰And they at once left the nets and followed him. ²¹And going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. ²²And they at once left the boat and their father and followed him.

Mark 1:16-20

¹⁶And passing along by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, Simon’s brother, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. ¹⁷And Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you become fishers of people.” ¹⁸And at once they left the nets and followed him. ¹⁹And going on a little, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets. ²⁰And at once he called them; and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, they went away after him.

John 21:1-14

¹After these things Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias; and he revealed himself in this way. ²Simon Peter, and Thomas, who is called Didymus, and Nathanael, who was from Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. ³Simon Peter says to them, “I am going fishing.” They say to him, “We also are coming with you.” They went out and got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing. ⁴When it was already early morning, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. ⁵So Jesus says to them, “Children, you do not have any fish, do you?” They answered him, “No.” ⁶And he said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and they were no longer able to haul it in because of the great number of fish. ⁷So that disciple whom Jesus loved says to Peter, “It is the Lord!” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tied his outer garment around himself, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. ⁸But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits off, dragging the net full of fish. ⁹So when they got out on the land, they see a charcoal fire in place and fish lying on it and bread. ¹⁰Jesus says to them, “Bring some of the fish that you have caught now.” ¹¹So Simon Peter went up and hauled the net to land, full of large fish, a hundred fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not torn. ¹²Jesus says to them, “Come, have breakfast.” But none of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?” knowing that it was the Lord. ¹³Jesus comes and takes the bread and gives it to them, and the fish likewise. ¹⁴This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after being raised from the dead.
