10. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.”
11. Simon Peter went up and dragged the net, full of one hundred and fifty-three large fish, to land. Although there were so many, the net was not torn.
12. Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.” None of the disciples dared ask, “Who are You?” They knew it was the Lord.
13. Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish.
14. This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to His disciples after He was raised from the dead.
15. So when they had eaten breakfast, 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.”
16. He said to him again a 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, “Tend My sheep.”
17. He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me?”Peter was grieved because He asked him the third time, “Do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Lord, You know everything. You know that I love You.”Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.
18. Truly, truly I say to you, when you were young, you dressed yourself and walked where you desired. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.”
19. He said this, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. When He had said this, He said to him, “Follow Me.”
20. Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, who also leaned against His bosom at the supper and had said, “Lord, who is it that is going to betray You?”
21. When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”
22. Jesus said to him, “If it is My will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow Me!”
23. The saying went out among the brothers that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, “If it is My will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”
24. This is the disciple who testifies about these things, and wrote these things. We know that his testimony is true.
25. There are also many other things which Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written. Amen.
