1 And it occurred, that a multitude gathered about him, to hear the word of God. And he was standing by the side of the sea of Gennesaret,
2 and he saw two ships standing near the sea, and the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
3 And one of them belonged to Simon Cephas: and Jesus entered and sat in it. And he told them to draw off a little from the shore, into the sea: and he seated himself, and taught the multitude from the ship.
4 And when he ceased from speaking, he said to Simon: Launch out into the deep, and cast your net for a draught.
5 Simon answered, and said to him: Rabbi, all the night we have toiled, and have caught nothing: but, at thy bidding, I will cast the net.
6 And when they had done so, they inclosed very many fishes, so that the net was rent.
7 And they made signs to their associates, in the other ship, to come and help them. And when they came, they filled both the ships, so that they were near to sinking.
8 And when Simon Cephas saw it, he fell before the feet of Jesus, and said to him: I beseech thee, my Lord, that thou leave me, for I am a sinful man.
9 For astonishment had seized him, and all that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had caught:
10 and in like manner also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners of Simon. But Jesus said: Fear thou not; henceforth thou shalt catch men unto life.
11 And they brought the vessels to the land: and they left all and followed him.
