1. As Jesus stood beside Lake Galilee, a crowd of people pushed to get closer to him and to hear the teachings of God.
2. Jesus saw two boats at the shore of the lake. The fishermen were washing their nets.
3. Jesus got into the boat that belonged to Simon. He asked Simon to push off a little from the shore. Then he sat down in the boat and taught the people on the shore.
4. When Jesus finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Take the boat into the deep water. If all of you will put your nets into the water, you will catch some fish.”
