John 21:1

¶

After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way.

John 21:2

Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were there.

John 21:3

Simon Peter said to them,

“I am going fishing.”

They said to him,

“We will go with you.”

They went out and got into the boat,

but that night they caught nothing.

John 21:4

¶

Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

John 21:5

Jesus said to them,

“Children, do you have any fish?”

They answered him, “No.”

John 21:6

He said to them,

“Cast the net

on the right side of the boat,

and you will find some.”

So they cast

their net on the right side,

and now

they were not able to haul it in,

because of the quantity of fish.

John 21:7

That disciple

whom Jesus loved

therefore said to Peter,

“It is the Lord!”

When

Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord,

he put on his outer garment,

Because, Peter, was Dressed for work,

Peter, threw himself into the sea.

John 21:8

The other disciples came in the boat,

dragging the net full of fish,

for they were not far from the land,

They Were about a hundred yards land.

John 21:9

¶ When they got out on land,

they saw a charcoal fire in place,

with fish laid out on it, and With bread.

John 21:10

Jesus said to them,

“Bring some of the fish

that you have just caught.”

John 21:11

So Simon Peter

went aboard and hauled the net ashore,

full of large fish, 153 of them.

And although

there were so many, the net was not torn.

John 21:12

Jesus said to them,

“Gather together and have breakfast.”

Now none of the disciples dared ask him,

“Who are you?”

They knew it was the Lord.

John 21:13

Jesus came and

took the bread

and gave it to them, and so with the fish.

John 21:14

This was now

the third time

that Jesus

was revealed

to the disciples

after he was raised from the dead.

John 17:1

When Jesus had spoken these words,

HE

lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father,

the hour has come;

glorify your Son

that the Son may glorify you,

John 17:2

since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him.

John 17:3

And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

John 17:4

I glorified you on earth,

having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.

John 17:5

And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.

John 17:6

“I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world.

Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.

John 17:7

Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you.

John 17:8

For I have given them

the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you;

and they have believed that you sent me.

John 17:9

I am praying for them.

I am not praying for the world

but for those whom you have given me,

for they are yours.

John 17:10

All mine are yours,

and yours are mine,

and I am glorified in them.

John 17:11

And I am no longer in the world,

but they are in the world, and

I am coming to you.

Holy Father,

keep them in your name,

which you have given me,

that they may be one,

even as we are one.

John 17:12

While I was with them,

I kept them in your name,

which you have given me.

I have guarded them,

and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction,

that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

John 17:13

But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

John 17:14

I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

John 17:15

I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.

John 17:16

They are not of the world,

just as I am not of the world.

John 17:17

Sanctify them

in the truth; your word is truth.

John 17:18

As you sent me into the world,

so I have sent them into the world.

John 17:19

And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.

John 17:20

I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word,

John 17:21

that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you,

that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

John 17:22

The glory that you have given me I have given to them,

that they may be one even as we are one,

John 17:23

I in them and you in me,

that they may become perfectly one,

so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.

John 17:24

Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.

Matthew 10:1

¶

And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction.

first, Simon, who is called Peter,

and Andrew his brother;

James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

Matthew 10:3

Philip and Bartholomew;

Thomas and Matthew the tax collector;

James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

Matthew 10:4

and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Matthew 11:25

¶

At that time Jesus declared,

“I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding

and revealed them to little children;

Matthew 11:26

yes, Father, for such was your gracious will.

Matthew 11:27

All things have been handed over to me by my Father,

and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son

and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Matthew 11:28

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:29

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Matthew 11:30

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
