1 A fter this, Jesus let Himself be seen and revealed again to the disciples, at the Sea of Tiberias. And He did it in this way:

After these things Jesus manifested himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he manifested thus.

2 T here were together Simon Peter, and Thomas, called the Twin, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, also the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples.

There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael who was of Cana of Galilee, and the of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

3 S imon Peter said to them, I am going fishing! They said to him, And we are coming with you! So they went out and got into the boat, and throughout that night they caught nothing.

Simon Peter says to them, I go to fish. They say to him, We also come with thee. They went forth, and went on board, and that night took nothing.

4 M orning was already breaking when Jesus came to the beach and stood there. However, the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

And early morn already breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; the disciples however did not know that it was Jesus.

5 S o Jesus said to them, Boys (children), you do not have any meat (fish), do you? They answered Him, No!

Jesus therefore says to them, Children, have ye anything to eat? They answered him, No.

6 A nd He said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find. So they cast the net, and now they were not able to haul it in for such a big catch (mass, quantity) of fish.

And he said to them, Cast the net at the right side of the ship and ye will find. They cast therefore, and they could no longer draw it, from the multitude of fishes.

7 T hen the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! Simon Peter, hearing him say that it was the Lord, put (girded) on his upper garment (his fisherman’s coat, his outer tunic)—for he was stripped —and sprang into the sea.

That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved says to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter therefore, having heard that it was the Lord, girded his overcoat (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea;

8 A nd the other disciples came in the small boat, for they were not far from shore, only some hundred yards away, dragging the net full of fish.

and the other disciples came in the small boat, for they were not far from the land, but somewhere about two hundred cubits, dragging the net of fishes.

9 W hen they got out on land (the beach), they saw a fire of coals there and fish lying on it, and bread.

When therefore they went out on the land, they see a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

10 J esus said to them, Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.

Jesus says to them, Bring of the fishes which ye have now taken.

11 S o Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net to land, full of large fish, 153 of them; and there were so many of them, the net was not torn.

Simon Peter went up and drew the net to the land full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there were so many, the net was not rent.

12 J esus said to them, Come have breakfast. But none of the disciples ventured or dared to ask Him, Who are You? because they knew that it was the Lord.

Jesus says to them, Come dine. But none of the disciples dared inquire of him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

13 J esus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so also the fish.

Jesus comes and takes the bread and gives it to them, and the fish in like manner.

14 T his was now the third time that Jesus revealed Himself (appeared, was manifest) to the disciples after He had risen from the dead.

This is already the third time that Jesus had been manifested to the disciples, being risen from among dead.

15 W hen they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these ? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My lambs.

When therefore they had dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Feed my lambs.

16 A gain He said to him the second time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me ? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Shepherd (tend) My sheep.

He says to him again a second time, Simon, of Jonas, lovest thou me? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Shepherd my sheep.

17 H e said to him the third time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me ? Peter was grieved (was saddened and hurt) that He should ask him the third time, Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know everything; You know that I love You. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep.

He says to him the third time, Simon, of Jonas, art thou attached to me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Art thou attached to me? and said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep.

18 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, when you were young you girded yourself and you walked about wherever you pleased to go. But when you grow old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will put a girdle around you and carry you where you do not wish to go.

Verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst where thou desiredst; but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and bring thee where thou dost not desire.

19 H e said this to indicate by what kind of death Peter would glorify God. And after this, He said to him, Follow Me!

But he said this signifying by what death he should glorify God. And having said this, he says to him, Follow me.

20 B ut Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved, following—the one who also had leaned back on His breast at the supper and had said, Lord, who is it that is going to betray You?

Peter, turning round, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also leaned at supper on his breast, and said, Lord, who is it that delivers thee up?

21 W hen Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, Lord, what about this man?

Peter, seeing him, says to Jesus, Lord, and what this ?

22 J esus said to him, If I want him to stay (survive, live) until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!

Jesus says to him, If I will that he abide until I come, what to thee? Follow thou me.

23 S o word went out among the brethren that this disciple was not going to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not going to die, but, If I want him to stay (survive, live) till I come, what is that to you?

This word therefore went out among the brethren, That disciple does not die. And Jesus did not say to him, He does not die; but, If I will that he abide until I come, what to thee?

24 I t is this same disciple who is bearing witness to these things and who has recorded (written) them; and we know that his testimony is true.

This is the disciple who bears witness concerning these things, and who has written these things; and we know that his witness is true.

25 A nd there are also many other things which Jesus did. If they should be all recorded one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain (have room for) the books that would be written.

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they were written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself would contain the books written.
