5 And Simon answered and[a] said, “Master, although we[b] worked hard through the whole night, we caught nothing. But at your word I will let down the nets.” 6 And when they[c] did this, they caught a very large number of fish, and their nets began to tear.[d] 7 And they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and[e] help them, and they came and filled both the boats so that they began to sink.

New International Version
5 Simon answered, “Master,(A) we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything.(B) But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”
6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break.(C) 7 So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
