The other disciples came in the boat,
dragging the net with the fish. They were only about a hundred yards
from shore. When they climbed out of the boat, they saw a charcoal fire
already laid with fish. And there was also bread. Jesus said, Bring the
fish you caught.
Simon Peter went over and dragged in the net full of one hundred and
fifty three large fish. Yet, even though there were so many, the net
was not broken. Jesus said to them, Come and dine. None of the
disciples dared to ask Him, Who are you? knowing that it was the Lord.
Jesus then came to each one and served the bread and fish. This was now
the third time Jesus appeared to His disciples.
After they finished the breakfast, Jesus turned to Simon Peter and
said, Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these? Peter said to
Him, Yes, Lord. You know that I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my
lambs. Then He said to him a second time, Simon, son of John, Do you
love me? He said to Him, Yes, Lord. You know that I love you. Jesus
said, Feed my sheep.
He said to him yet a third time, Simon, son of John, Do you love me?
Peter was upset because He asked a third time, Do you love me? He
answered Jesus, Lord, You know all things. You know that I love you.
Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep. Amen, amen, I say to you, when you
were young, you dressed yourself and went wherever you wanted to go.
