Pie Tibērijas jūras
1 Pēc tam Jēzus atkal parādījās saviem mācekļiem pie Tibērijas jūras. Redzi, viņš parādījās, 2 kad vienkopus bija Sīmanis Pēteris, Toms, saukts Dvīnis, Natanaēls no Galilejas Kānas, Zebedeja dēli un vēl divi citi viņa mācekļi. 3 Sīmanis Pēteris viņiem sacīja: “Es eju zvejot.” Tie viņam sacīja: “Mēs arī iesim ar tevi!” Viņi aizgāja un sakāpa laivā, bet tajā naktī neko nenoķēra. 4 Kad bija jau rīts, Jēzus stāvēja krastā, bet mācekļi nezināja, ka tas ir Jēzus. 5 Tad Jēzus viņiem sauca: “Bērni, vai jums ir kas ēdams?” Tie viņam atbildēja: “Nē!” 6 Viņš tiem sacīja: “Metiet tīklu laivas labajā pusē, tad atradīsiet!” Tad tie iemeta tīklu un zivju daudzuma dēļ nespēja to vairs pavilkt. 7 Māceklis, ko Jēzus mīlēja, Pēterim sacīja: “Tas ir Kungs!” Sīmanis Pēteris, izdzirdējis, ka tas ir Kungs, apvilka virsdrēbes, jo viņš bija kails, un iemetās jūrā. 8 Bet citi mācekļi tuvojās ar laivu, vilkdami tīklu ar zivīm, jo tie nebija tālu no krasta – kādas divsimt olektis. 9 Izkāpuši krastā, viņi redzēja ogles kvēlojam un zivis uz tām un maizi. 10 Jēzus viņiem sacīja: “Nesiet no tām zivīm, ko tagad esat saķēruši!” 11 Tad Sīmanis Pēteris aizgāja un izvilka krastā tīklu, pilnu ar lielām zivīm, skaitā simt piecdesmit trīs. Bet tīkls nebija saplīsis, kaut arī zivju bija tik daudz. 12 Jēzus viņiem sacīja: “Nāciet uz rīta maltīti!” Un neviens māceklis neiedrošinājās viņam jautāt: “Kas tu esi?” Jo viņi zināja, ka tas ir Kungs. 13 Tad Jēzus nāca, ņēma maizi un deva viņiem un tāpat arī zivis. 14 Tā bija jau trešā reize, kad Jēzus pēc augšāmcelšanās no mirušajiem parādījās saviem mācekļiem.
Jēzus un Pētera saruna
15 Kad viņi bija pabrokastojuši, Jēzus Sīmanim Pēterim jautāja: “Sīmani, Jāņa dēls, vai tu mīli mani vairāk nekā šie?” Tas viņam atbildēja: “Jā, Kungs, tu zini, ka es tevi mīlu.” Viņš tam sacīja: “Gani manus jērus!” 16 Jēzus tam jautāja vēl otrreiz: “Sīmani, Jāņa dēls, vai tu mīli mani?” Tas viņam atbildēja: “Jā, Kungs, tu zini, ka es tevi mīlu.” Viņš tam sacīja: “Gani manas avis!” 17 Trešo reizi Jēzus tam jautāja: “Sīmani, Jāņa dēls, vai tu mani mīli?” Pēteris noskuma, ka viņš tam trešo reizi jautāja: vai tu mani mīli? – un viņam sacīja: “Kungs, tu zini visu, tu zini, ka es tevi mīlu.” Jēzus tam sacīja: “Gani manas avis! 18 Patiesi, patiesi es tev saku: kad tu biji jauns, tu apjozies un gāji, kur gribēji; bet, kad tu kļūsi vecs, tu izstiepsi savas rokas un cits tevi jozīs un vedīs, kur tu negribi.” 19 To viņš sacīja, norādīdams uz to, kādā nāvē Pēteris pagodinās Dievu. Pēc tam Jēzus viņam sacīja: “Seko man!”
Par mācekli, ko Jēzus mīlēja
20 Pēteris apgriezies ierauga sekojam mācekli, ko Jēzus mīlēja un kas tajā mielastā, noliecies pie viņa krūts, bija jautājis: “Kurš tas ir, kas tevi nodos?” 21 Viņu redzēdams, Pēteris Jēzum jautāja: “Kungs, bet kā ar šo?” 22 Jēzus viņam sacīja: “Ja es gribu, lai viņš paliek, kamēr es nāku, kas tev par to? Tu seko man!” 23 Tā brāļu vidū izplatījās runas, ka šis māceklis nemirs. Jēzus viņam nebija teicis, ka viņš nemirs, bet gan: ja es gribu, lai viņš paliek, kamēr es nāku, kas tev par to?
Evaņģēlija liecības patiesība
24 Šis māceklis ir tas, kurš par visu šo liecina un ir uzrakstījis; un mēs zinām, ka viņa liecība ir patiesa. 25 Ir vēl arī daudz cita, ko Jēzus ir darījis, un, ja to visu pēc kārtas uzrakstītu, tad, man šķiet, visa pasaule nevarētu uzņemt sarakstītās grāmatas.
1 After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself . 2 There 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. 3 Simon 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. 4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. 5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No. 6 And 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. 7 Therefore 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. 8 And 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. 9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread. 10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught. 11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken. 12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.
15 ¶ So 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. 16 He 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. 17 He 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. 18 Verily, 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. 19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me. 20 Then 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? 21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do ? 22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. 23 Then 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? 24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true. 25 And 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.
