John 21
1 AFTER these things Jesus again shewed himself to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and he appeared in the following manner:
After these things, Yeshua revealed himself again to the talmidim at Lake Tiberias. He revealed himself this way.
2 Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, the twin, and Nathaniel who was of Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of the disciples were together.
Shim'on Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galil, and the sons of Zavdai, and two others of his talmidim were together.
3 Simon Peter said to them, I am going a-fishing. They say to him, We too will go with thee. They went out, and got on board the vessel immediately; and that night they caught nothing.
Shim'on Peter said to them, "I'm going fishing." They told him, "We are also coming with you." They went out, and entered into the boat. That night, they caught nothing.
4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood upon the beach: yet the disciples had not discovered that it was Jesus.
But when day had already come, Yeshua stood on the beach, yet the talmidim did not know that it was Yeshua.
5 Then saith Jesus unto them, My youths, have ye any thing eatable? They answered him, No.
Yeshua therefore said to them, "Children, have you anything to eat?" They answered him, "No."
6 Then he said to them, Shoot the net on the right side of the vessel, and ye shall find fish. They shot it therefore, and now they were not able to drag it in from the quantity of fishes.
He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." They cast it therefore, and now they weren't able to draw it in for the multitude of fish.
7 Then said that disciple whom Jesus loved to Peter, It is the Lord! Then Simon Peter, when he heard that it was the Lord, girt his coat round him, (for he was stripped, ) and threw himself into the sea.
That talmid therefore whom Yeshua loved said to Peter, "It's the Lord." So when Shim'on Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat around him (for he was naked), and threw himself into the lake.
8 And the other disciples came in the little vessel, (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits, ) dragging the net with the fishes.
But the other talmidim came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about one hundred yards away), dragging the net full of fish.
9 When therefore they were come to land, they saw a fire laid, and a fish upon it, and a loaf.
So when they got out on the land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish placed on it, and bread.
10 Jesus saith to them, Bring some of the fish which ye have just caught.
Yeshua said to them, "Bring some of the fish which you have just caught."
11 Simon Peter went aboard, and drew the net to land full of large fishes, to the number of a hundred and fifty-three: and though they were so many, yet was not the net rent.
Shim'on Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fish, one hundred fifty-three; and even though there were so many, the net was not torn.
12 Jesus saith to them, Come, dine. Now not one of the disciples dared inquire, Who art thou? conscious that it was the Lord.
Yeshua said to them, "Come and eat breakfast." None of the talmidim dared inquire of him, "Who are you?" knowing that it was the Lord.
13 Then Jesus cometh, and taketh the loaf, and distributed to them, and of the fish in like manner.
Then Yeshua came and took the bread, gave it to them, and the fish likewise.
14 Now this was the third time Jesus had shewed himself to the disciples, after he rose from the dead.
This is now the third time that Yeshua was revealed to his talmidim, after he had risen from the dead.
15 When therefore they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith to him, Yes, Lord! thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my lambs.
So when they had eaten their breakfast, Yeshua said to Shim'on Peter, "Shim'on, son of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs."
16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith to him, Yes, Lord! thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
He said to him again a second time, "Shim'on, son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep."
17 He saith to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee! Jesus saith to him, Feed my sheep.
He said to him the third time, "Shim'on, son of John, do you love me?" Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" And he said to him, "Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you." Yeshua said to him, "Feed my sheep.
18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast a younger man, thou didst gird up thyself, and go about whithersoever thy choice led thee: but when thou shalt grow old, another person extending thy hands, shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
Truly I tell you, when you were young, you dressed yourself, and walked where you wanted to. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you, and carry you where you do not want to go."
19 This he told him, to intimate by what kind of death he should glorify God. And having thus spoken, he said to him, Follow me.
Now he said this, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. When he had said this, he said to him, "Follow me."
20 Now Peter, turning about, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also at the supper reclined on his bosom, and said, Lord, which is the person who betrayeth thee?
Then Peter, turning around, saw a talmid following. This was the talmid whom Yeshua sincerely loved, the one who had also leaned on Yeshua's chest at the evening meal and asked, "Lord, who is going to betray You?"
21 Peter looking at him, saith to Jesus, Lord, and what will become of this man?
Peter seeing him, said to Yeshua, "Lord, what about this man?"
22 Jesus saith to him, If I will that he abide till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.
Yeshua said to him, "If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you? You follow me."
23 Then this speech went forth among the disciples, as though this disciple was not to die: yet Jesus had not said to him, That he shall not die; but, If I will that he abide till I come, what is that to thee?
This saying therefore went out among the brothers, that this talmid would not die. Yet Yeshua did not say to him that he would not die, but, "If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you?"
24 This is the disciple who is testifing of these things, and hath written these things: and we know that his testimony is true.
This is the talmid who testifies about these things, and wrote these things. We know that his witness is true.
25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if every particular was written, I am of opinion that the world itself would not be capable of retaining the books which should be written. Amen.
There are also many other things which Yeshua did, which if they would all be written, I suppose that even the world itself would not have room for the books that would be written.
