A reading from the holy gospel according to John
At that time, 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.
EVANGILE DE JESUS CHRIST SELON ST. JEAN
Après cela, Jésus se montra encore aux disciples, sur les bords de la mer de Tibériade. Et voici de quelle manière il se montra. Simon Pierre, Thomas, appelé Didyme, Nathanaël, de Cana en Galilée, les fils de Zébédée, et deux autres disciples de Jésus, étaient ensemble. Simon Pierre leur dit: Je vais pêcher. Ils lui dirent: Nous allons aussi avec toi. Ils sortirent et montèrent dans une barque, et cette nuit-là ils ne prirent rien. Le matin étant venu, Jésus se trouva sur le rivage; mais les disciples ne savaient pas que c’était Jésus. Jésus leur dit: Enfants, n’avez-vous rien à manger? Ils lui répondirent: Non. Il leur dit: Jetez le filet du côté droit de la barque, et vous trouverez. Ils le jetèrent donc, et ils ne pouvaient plus le retirer, à cause de la grande quantité de poissons. Alors le disciple que Jésus aimait dit à Pierre: C’est le Seigneur! Et Simon Pierre, dès qu’il eut entendu que c’était le Seigneur, mit son vêtement et sa ceinture, car il était nu, et se jeta dans la mer. Les autres disciples vinrent avec la barque, tirant le filet plein de poissons, car ils n’étaient éloignés de terre que d’environ deux cents coudées. Lorsqu’ils furent descendus à terre, ils virent là des charbons allumés, du poisson dessus, et du pain. Jésus leur dit: Apportez des poissons que vous venez de prendre. Simon Pierre monta dans la barque, et tira à terre le filet plein de cent cinquante-trois grands poissons; et quoiqu’il y en eût tant, le filet ne se rompit point. Jésus leur dit: Venez, mangez. Et aucun des disciples n’osait lui demander: Qui es-tu? sachant que c’était le Seigneur. Jésus s’approcha, prit le pain, et leur en donna; il fit de même du poisson. C’était déjà la troisième fois que Jésus se montrait à ses disciples depuis qu’il était ressuscité des morts.
