And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes. (21:8) com1

As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread (21:9)

Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught (21:10)

Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken (21:11)

Jesus saith unto them, Come [and] dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord (21:12)

Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise (21:13)

This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead (21:14)

So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs (21:15)

He saith to him again the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep (21:16)

He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep (21:17)

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry [thee] whither thou wouldest not (21:18)

This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me (21:19)

Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee? (21:20)

Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what [shall] this man [do]? (21:21)

Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee? follow thou me (21:22)

Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee? (21:23)

This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true (21:24)

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen (21:25)
