The Lord and King has made a promise by his own holy name. He says,“ You can be sure that the time will come when your enemies will put hooks in your faces. They will lead every one of you away with fishhooks.

“ But now I will send for many fishermen,” announces the Lord.“ They will catch some of these people. After that, I will send for many hunters. They will hunt down the others on every mountain and hill. They will bring them out of the cracks in the rocks.

They hide and wait like a lion in the bushes. From their hiding places they wait to catch those who are helpless. They catch them and drag them off in their nets.

“ But we don’t want to make them angry. So go to the lake and throw out your fishing line. Take the first fish you catch. Open its mouth. There you will find the exact coin you need. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”

He said,“ Throw your net on the right side of the boat. There you will find some fish.” When they did, they could not pull the net into the boat. There were too many fish in it.Then the disciple Jesus loved said to Simon Peter,“ It is the Lord!” As soon as Peter heard that, he put his coat on. He had taken it off earlier. Then he jumped into the water.The other disciples followed in the boat. They were towing the net full of fish. The shore was only about 100 yards away.When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals. There were fish on it. There was also some bread.Jesus said to them,“ Bring some of the fish you have just caught.”So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat. He dragged the net to shore. It was full of large fish. There were 153 of them. But even with that many fish the net was not torn.

The Lord and King says,“ You clapped your hands. You stamped your feet. Deep down inside, you hated the land of Israel. You were glad because of what happened to it.

But I will put hooks in your jaws. I will make the fish in your streams stick to your scales. I will pull you out from among your streams. All the fish will stick to your scales.I will leave you out in the desert. All the fish in your streams will be there with you. You will fall down in an open field. You will not be picked up. I will feed you to the wild animals and to the birds in the sky.

“ People of Babylon, you have stolen what belongs to me. That has made you glad and full of joy. You dance around like a young cow on a threshing floor. You neigh like stallions.

Simon answered,“ Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”When they had done so, they caught a large number of fish. There were so many that their nets began to break.So they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. They came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees.“ Go away from me, Lord!” he said.“ I am a sinful man!”He and everyone with him were amazed at the number of fish they had caught.So were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who worked with Simon. Then Jesus said to Simon,“ Don’t be afraid. From now on you will fish for people.”

You were happy when the land of Israel became empty. So I will treat you in the same way. Mount Seir, you will be empty. So will the whole land of Edom. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

Those who live on the earth will be happy about this. That’s because those two prophets had made them suffer. The people will celebrate by sending one another gifts.

All those who pass by clap their hands and make fun of you. They laugh at you and shake their heads at the city of Jerusalem. They say,“ Could that be the city that was called perfect and beautiful? Is that the city that brought joy to everyone on earth?”All your enemies open their mouths wide against you. They laugh at you and grind their teeth. They say,“ We have swallowed up Jerusalem’s people. This is the day we’ve waited for. And we’ve lived to see it.”
