13 The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye, and believe the gospel.

14 And now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishers.

15 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
