John 21:9-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

9. So when they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

10. יהושע said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have now caught.”

11. Shim‛on Kĕpha went up and dragged the net to land, filled with one hundred and fifty-three big fishes. And though there were so many, the net was not broken.

12. יהושע said to them, “Come, have breakfast.” And not one of the taught ones had the courage to ask Him, “Who are You?,” knowing that it was the Master.

13. יהושע came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish.

14. This was now the third time יהושע was manifested to His taught ones after He was raised from the dead.

15. When, therefore, they had eaten breakfast, יהושע said to Shim‛on Kĕpha, “Shim‛on, son of Yonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yea, Master, You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.”

16. He said to him again, the second time, “Shim‛on, son of Yonah, do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Yea, Master, You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Shepherd My sheep.”

17. He said to him the third time, “Shim‛on, son of Yonah, do you love Me?” Kĕpha was sad because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Master, You know all, You know that I love You.” יהושע said to him, “Feed My sheep.
