- 16 And passing by the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew, casting nets into the sea, for they were fishermen.
- 17 And Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
- 18 And at once abandoning their nets, they followed him.
- 19 And continuing on a little ways from there, he saw James of Zebedee and his brother John, and they were mending their nets in a boat.
- 20 And immediately he called them. And leaving behind their father Zebedee in the boat with his hired hands, they followed him.

Citations as published in the USCCB liturgical calendar.

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.

Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
