NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

John 21

Jesus Appears at the Sea of Galilee

1

Afterg3326 theseg3778 thingsg3778 Jesusg2424  1 amanifestedg5319 Himselfg1438  bagaing3825 to the disciplesg3101 at the  cSeag2281 of Tiberiasg5085, and He manifestedg5319 Himself in thisg3779 wayg3779.

2

Simong4613 Peterg4074, and  aThomasg2381 calledg3004  1Didymusg1324, and  bNathanaelg3482 of  cCanag2580 in Galileeg1056, and  dthe sons of Zebedeeg2199, and twog1417 othersg243 of His disciplesg3101 were togetherg3674.

3

Simong4613 Peterg4074 *saidg3004 to them, "I am goingg5217 fishingg232." They *saidg3004 to him, "We will alsog2532 comeg2064 with you." They wentg1831 out and gotg1684 into the boatg4143; and  athat nightg3571 they caughtg4084 nothingg3762.

4

But when the dayg4407 was nowg2235 breakingg1096g4407b, Jesusg2424 stoodg2476 on the beachg123; yetg3305 the disciplesg3101 did not  aknowg3609a that it was Jesusg2424.

5

Sog3767 Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to them, "Childreng3813,  ayou do not haveg2192  1anyg5100 fishg4371, do you?" They answeredg611 Him, "Nog3756."

6

And He saidg3004 to them, aCastg906 the netg1350 on the right-handg1188 sideg3313 of the boatg4143 and you will findg2147 a catch." Sog3767 they castg906, and theng3765 they were not ableg2480 to haulg1670 it in becauseg575 of the greatg4128 numberg4128 of fishg2486.

7

 aThereforeg3767 that discipleg3101 whomg3739 Jesusg2424 lovedg25 *saidg3004 to Peterg4074, "It is the Lordg2962." Sog3767 when Simong4613 Peterg4074 heardg191 that it was the Lordg2962, he putg1241 his outerg1903 garmentg1903 on (for he was strippedg1131 for work), and threwg906 himselfg1438 into the seag2281.

8

But the otherg243 disciplesg3101 cameg2064 in the littleg4142 boatg4142, for they were not farg3112 from the landg1093, but aboutg5613  1oneg1250 hundredg1250 yardsg4083 awayg575, draggingg4951 the netg1350 full of fishg2486.

9

Sog3767 wheng5613 they gotg576 out on the landg1093, they *sawg991 a charcoalg439  afireg439 already laidg2749 and  bfishg3795 placedg1945 on it, and breadg740.

10

Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to them, "Bringg5342 someg575 of the  afishg3795 whichg3739 you have nowg3568 caughtg4084."

11

Simong4613 Peterg4074 wentg305 up and drewg1670 the netg1350 to landg1093, fullg3324 of largeg3173 fishg2486, a hundredg1540 and fifty-threeg4004g5140; and although there were sog5118 manyg5118, the netg1350 was not torng4977.

Jesus Provides

12

Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to them, "Comeg1205 and haveg709  abreakfastg709." Noneg3762 of the disciplesg3101 venturedg5111 to questiong1833 Him, "Whog5101 are You?" knowingg3609a that it was the Lordg2962.

13

Jesusg2424 *cameg2064 and *tookg2983  athe breadg740 and *gaveg1325 it to them, and the  bfishg3795 likewiseg3668.

14

Thisg3778 is nowg2235 the  athirdg5154 timeg5154 that Jesusg2424  1was manifestedg5319 to the disciplesg3101, after He was raisedg1453 from the deadg3498.

The Love Motivation

15

Sog3767 wheng3753 they had  afinishedg709 breakfastg709, Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to Simong4613 Peterg4074, "Simong4613, son of Johng2491, do you  1 bloveg25 Me moreg4183 than theseg3778?" He *saidg3004 to Him, "Yesg3483a, Lordg2962; You knowg3609a that I  2loveg5368 You." He *saidg3004 to him, "Tendg1006  cMy lambsg721b."

16

He *saidg3004 to him againg3825 a secondg1208 timeg1208, "Simong4613, son of Johng2491, do you  1loveg25 Me?" He *saidg3004 to Him, "Yesg3483a, Lordg2962; You knowg3609a that I  2loveg5368 You." He *saidg3004 to him, aShepherdg4165 My sheepg4263a."

17

He *saidg3004 to him the thirdg5154 timeg5154, "Simong4613, son of Johng2491, do you  1loveg5368 Me?" Peterg4074 was grievedg3076 becauseg3754 He saidg3004 to him  athe thirdg5154 timeg5154, "Do you  1loveg5368 Me?" And he saidg3004 to Him, "Lordg2962,  bYou knowg3609a allg3956 thingsg3956; You knowg1097 that I  1loveg5368 You." Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to him, cTendg1006 My sheepg4263a.

Our Times Are in His Hand

18

"Trulyg281, trulyg281, I sayg3004 to you, wheng3753 you were youngerg3501b, you used to girdg2224 yourselfg4572 and walkg4043 whereverg3699 you wishedg2309; but wheng3752 you growg1095 oldg1095, you will stretchg1614 out your handsg5495 and someoneg243 elseg243 will girdg2224 you, and bringg5342 you whereg3699 you do not wishg2309 to go."

19

Nowg1161 thisg3778 He saidg3004,  asignifyingg4591 by  bwhatg4169 kindg4169 of deathg2288 he would glorifyg1392 Godg2316. And when He had spokeng3004 thisg3778, He *saidg3004 to him, cFollowg190 Me!"

20

Peterg4074, turningg1994 aroundg1994, *sawg991 the  adiscipleg3101 whomg3739 Jesusg2424 lovedg25 followingg190 them; the one whog3739 alsog2532 had  bleanedg377 backg377 on His bosomg4738 at the supperg1173 and saidg3004, "Lordg2962, whog5101 is the one who betraysg3860 You?"

21

Sog3767 Peterg4074 seeingg3708 him *saidg3004 to Jesusg2424, "Lordg2962, and whatg5101 about thisg3778 mang3778?"

22

Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to him, "Ifg1437 I wantg2309 him to remaing3306  auntilg2193 I comeg2064, whatg5101 is that to you? You  bfollowg190 Me!"

23

Thereforeg3767 thisg3778 sayingg3056 wentg1831 out amongg1519  athe brethreng80 that that discipleg3101 would not dieg599; yetg1161 Jesusg2424 did not sayg3004 to him that he would not dieg599, but only, "Ifg1437 I wantg2309 him to remaing3306  buntilg2193 I comeg2064, whatg5101 is that to you?"

24

Thisg3778 is the discipleg3101 who  ais testifyingg3140 to theseg3778 thingsg3778 and wroteg1125 theseg3778 thingsg3778, and we knowg3609a that his testimonyg3141 is trueg227.

25

And there are alsog2532  amanyg4183 otherg243 thingsg4183 whichg3739 Jesusg2424 didg4160, whichg3748 ifg1437 they *were writteng1125 in detailg1520, I supposeg3633 that eveng3761 the worldg2889 itselfg846 *would not containg5562 the booksg975 that *would be writteng1125.
