1
And it came to pass that, as the people pressed upon Him to hear the Word of God, He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret

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

Now when He was through speaking, He said unto Simon, "Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draft."
5
And Simon answering said unto Him, "Master, we have toiled all the night and have taken nothing. Nevertheless, at Thy word I will let down the net."
