Luke 5:3-8

English Standard Version

³ Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And ^(A)he sat down and taught the people from the boat. ⁴ And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, ^(B)“Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” ⁵ And Simon answered, “Master, ^(C)we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” ⁶ And when they had done this, ^(D)they enclosed a large number of fish, and ^(E)their nets were breaking. ⁷ They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. ^(F)And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. ⁸ But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, ^(G)“Depart from me, for ^(H)I am a sinful man, O Lord.”
