Luke 5:2 in context

The verses around it, from Luke 5.

1 On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2 He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3 Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4 When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5 “Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.
