A fisherman
the Holy Bible

--Matthew--

And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. (4:18)

--Luke--

And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, (5:1)

And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing [their] nets. (5:2)

And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. (5:3)

Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. (5:4)

And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. (5:5)

And when they had this done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. (5:6)

And they beckoned unto [their] partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. (5:7)

--John--

Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing. (21:3)
