Luke 5:4-10 ▼

4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, |Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.|

5 Simon answered him, |Master, we worked all night, and took nothing; but at your word I will let down the nets.|

6 When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking.

7 They beckoned to their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. They came, and filled both boats, so that they began to sink.

8 But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, |Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.|

9 For he was amazed, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish which they had caught;

10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. Jesus said to Simon, |Do not be afraid. From now on you will be catching people.|
