14 Mas después que Juan fué encarcelado, Jesús vino á Galilea predicando el evangelio del reino de Dios,
15 Y diciendo: El tiempo es cumplido, y el reino de Dios está cerca: arrepentíos, y creed al evangelio.
16 Y pasando junto á la mar de Galilea, vió á Simón, y á Andrés su hermano, que echaban la red en la mar; porque eran pescadores.
