The First Disciples

¹⁶ As^(A) He was passing along by the Sea of Galilee,^(B) He saw Simon^(C) and Andrew,^(D) Simon’s brother. They were casting a net into the sea,^(E) since they were fishermen.

¹⁷ “Follow Me,”^(F) Jesus told them, “and I will make you fish for^[a](G) people!”^{(H) 18} Immediately they left their nets and followed^(I) Him.^{(J) 19} Going on a little farther, He saw James^(K) the son of Zebedee^(L) and his brother John.^(M) They were in their boat mending their nets. ²⁰ Immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed Him.^(N)
