إنجيل القدّيس متّى 23-18:4
فيمَا كَانَ يَسُوعُ مَاشِيًا عَلى شَاطِئِ بَحْرِ الجَلِيل، رَأَى أَخَوَيْن، سِمْعَانَ الَّذي يُدْعَى بُطْرُس، وأَنْدرَاوُسَ أَخَاه، وهُمَا يُلْقِيَانِ الشَّبَكَةَ في البَحْر، لأَنَّهُمَا كَانَا صَيَّادَيْن
فقَالَ لَهُمَا: إِتْبَعَانِي فَأَجْعَلَكُمَا صَيَّادَيْنِ لِلنَّاس
فتَرَكَا الشِّبَاكَ حَالاً، وتَبِعَاه
ولَمَّا جَازَ مِنْ هُنَاك، رَأَى أَخَوَيْنِ آخَرَيْن، يَعْقُوبَ بْنَ زَبَدَى، ويُوحَنَّا أَخَاه، في السَّفِينَةِ مَعَ زَبَدَى أَبِيهِمَا، وهُمَا يُصْلِحَانِ شِبَاكَهُمَا، فَدَعَاهُمَا
فَتَرَكا حَالاً ٱلسَّفِينَةَ وأَبَاهُمَا، وتَبِعَاه
وكانَ يَسُوعُ يَطُوفُ كُلَّ الجَلِيل، يُعَلِّمُ في مَجَامِعِهم، ويَكْرِزُ بإِنْجِيلِ المَلَكُوت، ويَشْفِي الشَّعْبَ مِنْ كُلِّ مَرَضٍ وكُلِّ عِلَّة
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 4:18-22.
As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen.
He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
At once they left their nets and followed him.
He walked along from there and saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat, with their father Zebedee, mending their nets. He called them,
and immediately they left their boat and their father and followed him.
