Matthew 4:18-22 (NASB)

18 Matthew 4:18 Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 Matthew 4:19 And He *said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 20 Matthew 4:20 Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. 21 Matthew 4:21 Going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them. 22 Matthew 4:22 Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
