The fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets. 3 He got into one of the boats, which belonged to Simon, and asked him to push it out a little from the shore. Then He sat down and began teaching the crowds from the boat. 4 When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch." 5 Simon answered, "Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing. But at Your word, I will let down the net." 6 When they had done this, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear. 7 So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. They came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, "Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man!" 9 For amazement had seized him and all those with him because of the catch of fish they had taken. 10 And so were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were Simon's partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on, you will fish for people." 11 So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything, and followed Him.
