19 When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 20 And when he had said this, he showed unto them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord. 21 Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you. 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit: 23 whose soever sins ye forgive, they are forgiven unto them; whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

19 În seara aceleiaş zile, cea dintîi a săptămînii, pe cînd uşile locului unde erau adunaţi ucenicii erau încuiate, de frica Iudeilor, a venit Isus, a stătut în mijlocul lor, şi le -a zis: ,,Pace vouă!

20 Şi după ce a zis aceste vorbe, le -a arătat mînile şi coasta Sa. Ucenicii s'au bucurat, cînd au văzut pe Domnul.

21 Isus le -a zis din nou: ,,Pace vouă! Cum M'a trimes pe Mine Tatăl, aşa vă trimet şi Eu pe voi.

22 După aceste vorbe, a suflat peste ei, şi le -a zis: ,,Luaţi Duh Sfînt!

23 Celorce le veţi ierta păcatele, vor fi iertate; şi celor ce le veţi ţinea vor fi ţinute.
