1 Now Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd was pressing around him to hear the word of God. 2 He saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets. 3 He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then Jesus sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. 4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, |Put out into the deep water and lower your nets for a catch.| 5 Simon answered, |Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing! But at your word I will lower the nets.| Luke 5:1-5, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
