恭讀聖若望福音 21:1-14

那時,耶穌在提庇黎雅海邊,又顯現給門徒;他是這樣顯現的:當西滿伯多祿,號稱狄狄摩的多默,加里肋亞加納的納塔乃耳,載伯德的兩個兒子,和其他兩個門徒在一起的時候,西滿伯多祿對他們說:「我去打魚。」他們回答說:「我們也同你一起去。」他們便出去,上了船,但那一夜什麼也沒有捕到。已經到了早晨,耶穌站在岸上,門徒卻沒有認出他是耶穌來。於是耶穌對他們說:「孩子們!你們有些魚吃嗎?」他們回答說:「沒有。」耶穌向他們說:「向船右邊撒網,就會捕到。」他們便撒下網去,因為魚太多,竟不能拉上網來。耶穌所愛的那個門徒就對伯多祿說:「是主。」伯多祿一聽說是主,他原是赤著身,就束上外衣,縱身跳入海裏;其他的門徒,因離岸不遠——約有二百肘——坐著小船,拖著一網魚而來。當他們上了岸,看見放著一堆炭火,上面放著魚和餅。耶穌對他們說:「把你們剛才所打得的魚拿一些來!」西滿伯多祿便上去,把網拉上岸來。網裏滿了大魚,共一百五十三條;雖然這麼多,網卻沒有破。耶穌向他們說:「你們來吃早飯吧!」門徒中沒有人敢問他:「你是誰?」因為知道是主。耶穌遂上前拿起餅來,遞給他們;也同樣拿起魚來,遞給他們。耶穌從死者中復活後,向門徒顯現,這已是第三次。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 21:1-14

Jesus revealed himself again to his disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself in this way. Together were Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, Zebedee’s sons, and two others of his disciples. Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We also will come with you.” So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. When it was already dawn, Jesus was standing on the shore; but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them, “Children, have you caught anything to eat?” They answered him, “No.” So he said to them, “Cast the net over the right side of the boat and you will find something.” So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in because of the number of fish. So the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord.” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tucked in his garment, for he was lightly clad, and jumped into the sea. The other disciples came in the boat, for they were not far from shore, only about a hundred yards, dragging the net with the fish. When they climbed out on shore, they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you just caught.” So Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore full of one hundred fifty-three large fish. Even though there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come, have breakfast.” And none of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because they realized it was the Lord. Jesus came over and took the bread and gave it to them, and in like manner the fish. This was now the third time Jesus was revealed to his disciples after being raised from the dead.
