1And it came to passe, that as the people preassed vpon him to heare the word of God, hee stood by the lake of Genesareth, 2And sawe two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. 3And he entred into one of the ships, which was Simons, and prayed him, that he would thrust out a little from the land: and he sate downe, and taught the people out of the ship. 4Now when he had left speaking, he said vnto Simon, Lanch out into the deepe, and let downe your nets for a draught.
