NARRATOR.
Now as Jesus was walking along the Sea of Galilee, which is also called Lake Gennesaret, he saw Simon, who was called Peter and
his brother Andrew casting a net in the lake, for they were fisherman. Later as he was preaching by the lake, the people listening
began pressing round him to hear the Word of God. Jesus saw two boats lying at the waters edge, but the fisherman had gone out of
them and they were washing their nets. He boarded one of the boats, which was Simon's and asked him to put a little out from the
shore. He sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. When he had finished speaking he said to Simon:
JESUS.
Put out into deep water and pay out your nets for a catch.
SIMON.
Master, we worked hard all night and didn't catch a thing. But if you say so, I will pay out the nets.
NARRATOR.
When they had done this, they netted such a huge number of fish that their nets began to tear. So they signaled to their partners in the
other boat to come and help them. When they came, they filled the two boats to the point of sinking. When Simon Peter saw this, he
fell down at the knees of Jesus and said:
SIMON.
Leave me Lord, for I'm a sinful man.
