¹ And seeing great masses of people he went up into the mountain; and when he was seated his disciples came to him.

² And great numbers of people came together to him, so that he got into a boat; and the people took up their position by the sea.

¹⁸ And when he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, whose other name was Peter, and Andrew, his brother, who were putting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

¹⁹ And he said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

²⁰ And straight away they let go the nets and went after him.

²¹ And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the boat with their father, stitching up their nets; and he said, Come.

²² And they went straight from the boat and their father and came after him.

¹³ And the day came and, turning to his disciples, he made a selection from among them of twelve, to whom he gave the name of Apostles;

¹⁴ Simon, to whom he gave the name of Peter, and Andrew, his brother, and James and John and Philip and Bartholomew

¹⁵ And Matthew and Thomas and James, the son of Alphaeus, and Simon, who was named the Zealot,

¹⁶ And Judas, the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, he who was false to him.

¹ And again he was teaching by the seaside. And a very great number of people had come to him, so that he got into a boat on the sea and took his seat; and all the people were on the land by the seaside.

²⁰ And he went into a house. And the people came together again, so that they were not even able to take bread.

¹³ And he went up into the mountain, and sent for those whom it was his pleasure to have with him: and they went to him.

²⁹ And Jesus went from there and came to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and took his seat there.

² Now the names of the twelve are these: The first, Simon, who is named Peter, and Andrew, his brother; James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother;

³ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew, the tax-farmer; James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

⁴ Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who was false to him.

²⁵ And there went after him great numbers from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea and from the other side of Jordan.

² And a great number of people went after him because they saw the signs which he did on those who were ill.

³ Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.
