Luke 5:1-13

¹Now while the multitude pressed on him and heard the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret.

²He saw two boats standing by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.

³He entered into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

⁴When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”

⁵Simon answered him, “Master, we worked all night and caught nothing; but at your word I will let down the net.”

⁶When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking.

⁷They beckoned to their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. They came and filled both boats, so that they began to sink.

⁸But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Yeshua’s knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.”

⁹For he was amazed, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish which they had caught;

¹⁰and so also were Jacob and Yochanan, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. Yeshua said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid. From now on you will be catching people alive.”

¹¹When they had brought their boats to land, they left everything, and followed him.

¹²While he was in one of the cities, behold, there was a man full of leprosy. When he saw Yeshua, he fell on his face and begged him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

¹³He stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately the leprosy left him.
