²and he saw two boats there beside the lake, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and^* were washing their nets. ³And he got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and^* asked him to put out from the land a little. And he sat down and^* began to teach^* the crowds from the boat. ⁴And when he stopped speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.” ⁵And Simon answered and^* said, “Master, although we^* worked hard through the whole night, we caught nothing. But at your word I will let down the nets.” ⁶And when they^* did this, they caught a very large number of fish, and their nets began to tear.^* ⁷And they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and^* help them, and they came and filled both the boats so that they began to sink. ⁸And when he^* saw it,^* Simon Peter fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Depart from me, Lord, because I am a sinful man!”^b ⁹For amazement had seized him and all those who were with him at the catch of fish that they had caught, ¹⁰and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were business partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid! From now on you will be catching people!” ¹¹And after they^* brought their^c boats to the land, they left everything and^* followed him.
