Luke 5:8 in Context — Luke 5

6 Y habiéndolo hecho, encerraron gran multitud de pescado, que su red se rompía.

7 E hicieron señas á los compañeros [que estaban] en el otro barco, que viniesen á ayudarles; y vinieron, y llenaron ambos barcos, de tal manera que se anegaban.

8 Lo cual viendo Simón Pedro, se derribó de rodillas á Jesús, diciendo: Apártate de mí, Señor, porque soy hombre pecador.

9 Porque temor le había rodeado, y á todos los que estaban con él, de la presa de los peces que habían tomado;

10 Y asimismo á Jacobo y á Juan, hijos de Zebedeo, que eran compañeros de Simón. Y Jesús dijo á Simón: No temas: desde ahora pescarás hombres.
