Mark 1:16-20

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Calls The First Disciples

¹⁶ And while passing-by beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew (the brother of Simon), casting-a-net in the sea. For they were fishermen. ¹⁷ And Jesus said to them, “Come after Me, and I will make you become fishermen of people”. ¹⁸ And immediately, having left the nets, they followed Him. ¹⁹ And having gone on a little, He saw James (the son of Zebedee) and John (his brother)— they also in their boat, preparing^[a] the nets. ²⁰ And immediately He called them. And having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired ones, they went after Him.
