John 21:4-23

[4] But  when the morning  now  come,  Jesus  stood  on  the shore:  but  the disciples  knew  not  that  Jesus.  [5] Then  Jesus  saith  unto them,  Children,  have ye  meat?  They answered  him,  No.  [6] And  he said  unto them,  Cast  the net  on  the right  side  of the ship,  and  ye shall find.  They cast  therefore,  and  not  able  to draw  it  for  the multitude  of fishes.  [7] Therefore  that  disciple  whom  Jesus  loved  saith  unto Peter,  the Lord.  Now  when Simon  Peter  heard  that  the Lord,  he girt  his fisher's coat  unto him, (for  naked,)  and  did cast  himself  into  the sea.  [8] And  the other  disciples  came  in a little ship;  (for  not  far  from  land,  but  as it were  two hundred  cubits,)  dragging  the net  with fishes.  [9] As soon  then  as they were come  to  land,  they saw  a fire of coals  there, and  fish  laid  thereon,  and  bread.  [10] Jesus  saith  unto them,  Bring  of  the fish  which  now  caught.  [11] Simon  Peter  went up,  and  drew  the net  land  full  of great  fishes,  an hundred  and fifty  and three:  and  for all there were so many,  not  the net  broken.  [12] Jesus  saith  unto them,  Come  and dine.  And  none  of the disciples  durst  ask  him,  Who  thou?  knowing  that  the Lord.  [13] Jesus  cometh,  and  taketh  bread,  and  giveth  them,  and  fish  likewise.  [14] now  the third time  that Jesus  shewed himself  disciples,  after that he was risen  from  the dead.  [15] So  when  they had dined,  Jesus  saith  to Simon  Peter,  Simon,  lovest thou  more than  He saith  unto him,  Yea,  Lord;  thou  knowest  that  I love  He saith  unto him,  Feed  lambs.  [16] He saith  to him  again  the second time,  Simon,  lovest thou  He saith  unto him,  Yea,  Lord;  thou  knowest  that  I love  He saith  unto him,  Feed  sheep.  [17] He saith  unto him  the third  time, Simon,  lovest  Peter  was grieved  because  he said  unto him  the third  time, Lovest  And  he said  unto him,  Lord,  thou  knowest  all things;  thou  knowest  that  I love  Jesus  saith  unto him,  Feed  sheep.  [18] Verily,  I say  When  young,  thou girdedst  thyself,  and  walkedst  whither  thou wouldest:  but  when  thou shalt be old,  thou shalt stretch forth  hands,  and  another  shall gird  and  carry  thee whither  thou wouldest  not.  [19] spake he,  signifying  by what  death  he should glorify  God.  And  when he had spoken  he saith  unto him,  Follow  [20] Peter,  turning about,  seeth  the disciple  whom  Jesus  loved  following;  which  also  leaned  on  his  breast  at  supper,  and  said,  Lord,  which  that betrayeth  [21] Peter  saith  to Jesus,  Lord,  and  what  shall this man  [22] Jesus  saith  unto him,  If  I will  that he  tarry  till  I come,  what  is that to  follow  thou  [23] Then  this  saying  abroad  among  the brethren,  that  that  disciple  not  die:  Jesus  said  not  unto him,  not  die;  but,  If  I will  that he  tarry  till  I come,  what  is that to
