¹ tn Grk “And Simon.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

² tn Grk “answering, Simon said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified in the translation to “Simon answered.”

³ tn The word ἐπιστάτης is a term of respect for a person of high status (see L&N 87.50).

⁴ tn The expression “at your word,” which shows Peter’s obedience, stands first in the Greek clause for emphasis.

⁵ tn Or “let down.”

⁶ tn Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

⁷ sn See Luke 6:24-26.

¹¹ sn Jesus’ death has been determined as a part of God’s plan (Acts 2:22-24).
