19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. 21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my 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 Ghost: 23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

19 When therefore it was evening on that day, which was the first {day} of the week, and the doors shut where the disciples were, through fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and says to them, Peace {be} to you.

20 And having said this, he shewed to them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced therefore, having seen the Lord.

21 {Jesus} said therefore again to them, Peace {be} to you: as the Father sent me forth, I also send you.

22 And having said this, he breathed into {them}, and says to them, Receive {the} Holy Spirit:

23 whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted to them; whose soever {sins} ye retain, they are retained.
