n20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

n21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

n22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

n4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
