21  Muri iho i enei mea ka whakakite a Ihu i a ia ki nga akonga i te moana o Taipiria; ko tana whakakitenga tenei:

E noho tahi ana a Haimona Pita, a Tamati, ko Ririmu nei tona ingoa, a Natanahira o Kana o Kariri, nga tama a Heperi, me tetahi tokorua atu ano o ana akonga.

Ka mea a Haimona Pita ki a ratou, Ka haere ahau ki te hao. Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ko tatou tahi e haere. Haere ana ratou, eke ana ki runga ki te kaipuke; a i taua po kihai i mau tetahi mea.

Na ka puao te ata, ko Ihu e tu ana i tatahi: otiia kihai nga akonga i mohio ko Ihu ia.

Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, E tama ma, kahore a koutou kai? Ka whakahokia e ratou ki a ia, Kahore.

Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Maka te kupenga ki te taha matau o te kaipuke a ka mau etahi. Na, i ta ratou makanga atu, kihai i taea te kukume i te tini o nga ika.

Katahi ka mea te akonga i arohaina e Ihu ki a Pita, Ko te Ariki. A, no te rongonga o Haimona Pita, ko te Ariki, ka whitikiria tona kakahu, e tu kau ana hoki ia, a rere ana ki te moana.

Ko era akonga ia i hoe i runga i te poti, kihai hoki i mamao atu i te whenua, me te mea e rua rau whatianga, e kukume ana i te kupenga, i nga ika.

Heoi, no to ratou unga ki uta, ka kite i te kapura waro me nga ika e takoto ana i runga, me tetahi taro.

10 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Homai etahi o nga ika kua mau na i a koutou.

11 Na haere ana a Haimona Pita, a kumea ana e ia te kupenga ki uta, ki tonu i nga ika nunui, kotahi rau e rima tekau ma toru: a, ahakoa tini, kihai i pakaru te kupenga.

12 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, haere mai kai te kai. heoi kihai tetahi o nga akonga i maia ki te ui ki a ia, Ko wai koe? i mohio hoki ko te Ariki.

13 Na ka haere a Ihu, ka mau ki te taro, a hoatu ana e ia ki a ratou, me nga ika.

14 Ko te toru tenei o nga putanga o Ihu ki ana akonga, i muri i tona aranga ake i te hunga mate.

15 A ka mutu ta ratou kai, ka mea a Ihu ki a Haimona Pita, E Haimona, tama a Hona, rahi atu ranei tou aroha ki ahau i to enei? Ka mea tera ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea ia ki a ia, Whangainga aku reme.

16 Ka mea ano ia ki a ia, ko te rua o nga meatanga, E Haimona, tama a Hona, e aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka mea tera ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea ia ki a ia, Heparatia aku hipi.

17 Ka mea ia ki a ia, ko te toru o nga meatanga, E Haimona, tama a Hona, e aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka pouri a Pita no te mea ka toru rawa ana meatanga ki a ia, E aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka mea ano ki a ia, E te Ariki, e mohio ana koe ki nga mea katoa; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Whangainga aku hipi.

18 He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koe, I tou tamarikitanga, i whitiki koe i a koe, i haere ki tau wahi i pai ai: ka koroheketia koe, ka whakamarokia e koe ou ringa, he tangata ke hoki mana koe e whitiki, e kawe ki te wahi e kore ai koe e pai.

19 I korerotia tenei e ia, hei tohu mo te mate e whakakororia ai ia i te Atua. A ka puaki tenei kupu ana, ka mea ia ki a ia, Haere mai i muri i ahau.

20 No te tahuritanga o Pita, ka kite i te akonga i aroha ai a Ihu e aru ana; ko tera hoki i whakawhirinaki ra ki tonu uma i te hapa, i mea ra, E te Ariki, ko wai te kaituku mou?

21 A, i te kitenga o Pita i a ia, ka mea ki a Ihu, E te Ariki, e aha ra tenei?

22 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ki te pai ahau kia noho tonu ia kia tae mai ra ano ahau, hei aha mau? haere mai koe i muri i ahau.

23 Heoi ka puta atu tenei kupu ki nga hoa, e kore taua akonga e mate: otiia kihai a Ihu i mea ki a ia, E kore ia e mate; engari, Ki te pai ahau kia noho tonu ia kia tae mai ra ano ahau, hei aha mau?

24 Ko taua akonga tenei e whakaatu nei i enei mea, ko te kaituhituhi hoki ia i enei mea: e mohio ana ano matou e tika ana tana whakaatu.

25 Na tera atu ano tona tini o nga mea i mea ai a Ihu me i tuhia katoatia, e mea ana ahau, e kore pea te ao nei e whai takotoranga mo nga pukapuka e tuhia. Amine.

Jesus and the Miraculous Catch of Fish

21 Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples,(A) by the Sea of Galilee.[a](B) It happened this way: Simon Peter, Thomas(C) (also known as Didymus[b]), Nathanael(D) from Cana in Galilee,(E) the sons of Zebedee,(F) and two other disciples were together. “I’m going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they said, “We’ll go with you.” So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.(G)

Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.(H)

He called out to them, “Friends, haven’t you any fish?”

“No,” they answered.

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.(I)

Then the disciple whom Jesus loved(J) said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards.[c] When they landed, they saw a fire(K) of burning coals there with fish on it,(L) and some bread.

10 Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you have just caught.” 11 So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net was not torn. 12 Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord. 13 Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish.(M) 14 This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples(N) after he was raised from the dead.

Jesus Reinstates Peter

15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”

“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”(O)

Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”(P)

16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”(Q)

17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?”(R) He said, “Lord, you know all things;(S) you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.(T) 18 Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” 19 Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death(U) by which Peter would glorify God.(V) Then he said to him, “Follow me!”(W)

20 Peter turned and saw that the disciple whom Jesus loved(X) was following them. (This was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and had said, “Lord, who is going to betray you?”)(Y) 21 When Peter saw him, he asked, “Lord, what about him?”

22 Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return,(Z) what is that to you? You must follow me.”(AA) 23 Because of this, the rumor spread among the believers(AB) that this disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say that he would not die; he only said, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you?”

24 This is the disciple who testifies to these things(AC) and who wrote them down. We know that his testimony is true.(AD)

25 Jesus did many other things as well.(AE) If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.
