Luke 5:4-8

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Brings Simon a Great Catch of Fish. Now You Will Be Catching People

⁴ And when He ceased speaking, He said to Simon, “Put-out into the deep [water] and lower^[a] your nets for a catch”. ⁵ And having responded, Simon said, “Master, having labored through the whole night, we took nothing. But at^[b] Your word, I will lower the nets. ⁶ And having done this, they enclosed a large number of fish. And their nets were being torn. ⁷ And they signaled to their companions in the other boat that having come, they might help them. And they came. And they filled both the boats so that they were sinking. ⁸ And having seen it, Simon Peter fell at the knees of Jesus, saying, “Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, Master”.
