John 21:5-11

5So Jesus said to them, “Children, 1you do not have any fish to eat, do you?” They answered Him, “No.” 6And He said to them, “2Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat, and you will find the fish.” So they cast it, and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great quantity of fish. 73Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (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 4two hundred cubits away, dragging the net full of fish.

9So when they got out on the land, they saw a charcoal 5fire already 6made and 7fish placed on it, and bread. 10Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the 8fish which you have now caught.” 11So Simon Peter went up and hauled the net to land, full of large fish, 153; and although there were so many, the net was not torn.
