John 21:6-8

New Testament for Everyone

⁶ “Cast the net on the right side of the boat,” he said, “and you’ll find something.”

So they cast the net; and now they couldn’t draw it in because of the weight of the fish.

⁷ So the disciple that Jesus loved spoke to Peter.

“It’s the master!” he said.

When Simon Peter heard that it was the master, he wrapped his cloak around him (he had been naked for work), and threw himself into the sea. ⁸ The other disciples brought the boat in to land, dragging the net full of fish. They weren’t far from shore, about a hundred yards away.
