1Danach offenbarte sich Jesus abermals den Jüngern am See von Tiberias. Er offenbarte sich aber so:2Es waren beieinander Simon Petrus und Thomas, der Zwilling genannt wird, und Nathanael aus Kana in Galiläa und die Söhne des Zebedäus und zwei andere seiner Jünger. (Joh 1,45)3Spricht Simon Petrus zu ihnen: Ich gehe fischen. Sie sprechen zu ihm: Wir kommen mit dir. Sie gingen hinaus und stiegen in das Boot, und in dieser Nacht fingen sie nichts.4Als es aber schon Morgen war, stand Jesus am Ufer, aber die Jünger wussten nicht, dass es Jesus war. (Lk 24,16; Joh 20,14)5Spricht Jesus zu ihnen: Kinder, habt ihr nichts zu essen? Sie antworteten ihm: Nein. (Lk 24,41)6Er aber sprach zu ihnen: Werft das Netz aus zur Rechten des Bootes, so werdet ihr finden. Da warfen sie es aus und konnten’s nicht mehr ziehen wegen der Menge der Fische. (Lk 5,4)7Da spricht der Jünger, den Jesus lieb hatte, zu Petrus: Es ist der Herr! Als Simon Petrus hörte: »Es ist der Herr«, da gürtete er sich das Obergewand um, denn er war nackt, und warf sich in den See. (Joh 13,23)8Die andern Jünger aber kamen mit dem Boot, denn sie waren nicht fern vom Land, nur etwa zweihundert Ellen, und zogen das Netz mit den Fischen.9Als sie nun an Land stiegen, sahen sie ein Kohlenfeuer am Boden und Fisch darauf und Brot.10Spricht Jesus zu ihnen: Bringt von den Fischen, die ihr jetzt gefangen habt!11Simon Petrus stieg herauf und zog das Netz an Land, voll großer Fische, hundertdreiundfünfzig. Und obwohl es so viele waren, zerriss doch das Netz nicht.12Spricht Jesus zu ihnen: Kommt und haltet das Mahl! Niemand aber unter den Jüngern wagte, ihn zu fragen: Wer bist du? Denn sie wussten: Es ist der Herr.13Da kommt Jesus und nimmt das Brot und gibt’s ihnen, desgleichen auch den Fisch. (Joh 6,11)14Das ist nun das dritte Mal, dass sich Jesus den Jüngern offenbarte, nachdem er von den Toten auferstanden war.
Petrus und der Lieblingsjünger
15Da sie nun das Mahl gehalten hatten, spricht Jesus zu Simon Petrus: Simon, Sohn des Johannes, liebst du mich mehr, als mich diese lieb haben? Er spricht zu ihm: Ja, Herr, du weißt, dass ich dich lieb habe. Spricht Jesus zu ihm: Weide meine Lämmer! (Joh 1,42)16Spricht er zum zweiten Mal zu ihm: Simon, Sohn des Johannes, hast du mich lieb? Er spricht zu ihm: Ja, Herr, du weißt, dass ich dich lieb habe. Spricht Jesus zu ihm: Weide meine Schafe! (1Petr 5,2; 1Petr 5,4)17Spricht er zum dritten Mal zu ihm: Simon, Sohn des Johannes, hast du mich lieb? Petrus wurde traurig, weil er zum dritten Mal zu ihm sagte: Hast du mich lieb?, und sprach zu ihm: Herr, du weißt alle Dinge, du weißt, dass ich dich lieb habe. Spricht Jesus zu ihm: Weide meine Schafe! (Joh 13,38; Joh 16,30)18Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage dir: Als du jünger warst, gürtetest du dich selbst und gingst, wo du hinwolltest; wenn du aber alt bist, wirst du deine Hände ausstrecken und ein anderer wird dich gürten und führen, wo du nicht hinwillst.19Das sagte er aber, um anzuzeigen, mit welchem Tod er Gott preisen würde. Und als er das gesagt hatte, spricht er zu ihm: Folge mir nach! (Joh 13,36)20Petrus aber wandte sich um und sah den Jünger folgen, den Jesus lieb hatte, der auch beim Abendessen an seiner Brust gelegen und gesagt hatte: Herr, wer ist’s, der dich verrät? (Joh 13,23; Joh 13,25)21Als Petrus diesen sah, spricht er zu Jesus: Herr, was wird aber mit diesem?22Jesus spricht zu ihm: Wenn ich will, dass er bleibt, bis ich komme, was geht es dich an? Folge du mir nach!23Da kam unter den Brüdern die Rede auf: Dieser Jünger stirbt nicht. Aber Jesus hatte nicht zu ihm gesagt: Er stirbt nicht, sondern: Wenn ich will, dass er bleibt, bis ich komme, was geht es dich an?24Dies ist der Jünger, der das bezeugt und aufgeschrieben hat, und wir wissen, dass sein Zeugnis wahr ist. (Joh 15,27)25Es sind noch viele andere Dinge, die Jesus getan hat. Wenn aber eins nach dem andern aufgeschrieben werden sollte, so würde, meine ich, die Welt die Bücher nicht fassen, die zu schreiben wären. (Ps 106,2; Joh 20,30)
1After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way. (Mk 16,12; Mk 16,14; Joh 6,1; Joh 7,4; Joh 20,19; Joh 20,26; Joh 21,14)2Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. (Mt 4,21; Lk 5,10; Joh 2,1; Joh 4,46; Joh 11,16)3Simon 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. (Lk 5,5)4Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. (Joh 20,14)5Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” They answered him, “No.” (Lk 24,41)6He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. (Lk 5,4; Lk 5,6)7That 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, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. (1Sam 19,24; Jes 20,2; Mi 1,8; Mt 14,29; Joh 13,4; Joh 13,23; Joh 21,18)8The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards[1] off.9When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire in place, with fish laid out on it, and bread.10Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.”11So 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.12Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord. (Joh 4,27; Joh 21,15; Apg 10,41)13Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish. (Joh 21,9)14This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after he was raised from the dead. (Joh 20,19; Joh 20,26; Joh 21,1)
Jesus and Peter
15When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.” (Jes 40,11; Mt 16,17; Mt 26,33; Mk 14,29; Lk 22,31; Joh 1,42; Joh 10,11; Joh 21,12)16He said to him a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” (Joh 21,15; Apg 20,28; 1Petr 5,2; Offb 7,17)17He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. (Joh 2,25; Joh 13,38; Joh 21,16)18Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” (Joh 13,36; Joh 21,7)19(This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.” (Mt 16,24; Joh 8,12; Joh 13,36; Joh 21,22; 2Petr 1,14)
1After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.2There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.3Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.4But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.5Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.6And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.7Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.8And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.9As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.10Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.11Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, and hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.12Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.13Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.14This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.15So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.16He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.17He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.18Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.19This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.20Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee?21Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?22Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.23Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?24This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.25And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.
