John 21:5-11

5So Jesus said to them, “Children, 1you do not have 2any fish, do you?” They answered Him, “No.” 6And He said to them, “3Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat and you will find a catch.” So they cast, and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great number of fish. 74Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord.” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment on (for he was stripped for work), and threw himself into the sea. 8But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about 5one hundred yards away, dragging the net full of fish.

9So when they got out on the land, they saw a charcoal 6fire already laid and 7fish placed on it, and bread. 10Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the 8fish which you have now caught.” 11Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not torn.
