Amplified Bible
John 21:1-7
1After this Jesus revealed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias (Galilee). And He did it in this way:
2Simon Peter, and Thomas who is called Didymus (the twin), and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, as well as [John and James] the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.
3Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said, “And we are coming with you.” So they went out and got into the boat; and that night they caught nothing.
4As morning was breaking, Jesus [came and] stood on the beach; however, the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
5So Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish [to eat along with your bread]?” They answered, “No.”
6And He said to them, “Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat (starboard) and you will find some.” So they cast [the net], and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great catch of fish.
7Then that disciple (John) whom Jesus loved (esteemed) said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer tunic (for he was stripped for work) and threw himself into the sea [and swam ashore].
