They answered him, 'No.' 6 He said to them, 'Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.' So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in because of the large number of fish. 7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, 'It is the Lord!' When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tied his outer garment around himself (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the sea. 8 The other disciples came in the small boat, pulling the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about two hundred cubits away. 9 When they got out on the land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish on it, and some bread. 10 Jesus said to them, 'Bring some of the fish you have just caught.' 11 Simon Peter went aboard and dragged the net to shore. It was filled with large fish, 153 in total. Even with so many fish, the net was not torn.
