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.

19 When therefore it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were locked where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the middle and said to them, "Peace be to you."

20 When he had said this, he showed 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 to you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you." 22 When he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit! 23 If you forgive anyone’s sins, they have been forgiven them. If you retain anyone’s sins, they have been retained."
