31. And these things are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Chapter 21

1. After this, Jesus again appeared to his disciples by the sea of Tiberias. And he appeared thus:

2. Simon Peter, and Thomas, who is called the Twin, and Nathanael of Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples, were with him.

3. Simon Peter said to them, "I am going to fish." They said to him, "We are also going with you." They went and immediately entered the boat, and caught nothing that night.

4. And when morning had come, Jesus was standing on the shore; but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

5. Jesus says to them, "Children! Do you have any food? They answered Him, No.

6. And he said to them, "Cast your net on the right side of the boat, and you will catch it." They threw it, and could no longer pull out the nets from the multitude of fish.

7. Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "This is the Lord." And Simon Peter, when he heard that it was the Lord, girded himself with a garment, for he was naked, and threw himself into the sea.

8. And the other disciples sailed in a boat, for they were not far from the ground, about two hundred cubits, dragging a net with fish.

9. When they came to the ground, they saw a fire lit and fish and bread lying on it.

10. Jesus says to them, "Bring the fish you have now caught."

11. Simon Peter went and pulled out a net filled with large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; And with such a multitude, the net did not break.

12. Jesus says to them, "Come, dine." None of the disciples dared to ask Him, "Who art Thou?" knowing that it was the Lord.
