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."

19 Chegada, pois, a tarde, naquele dia, o primeiro da semana, e estando os discípulos reunidos com as portas cerradas por medo dos judeus, chegou Jesus, pôs-se no meio e disse-lhes: Paz seja convosco.

20 Dito isto, mostrou-lhes as mãos e o lado. Alegraram-se, pois, os discípulos ao verem o Senhor.

21 Disse-lhes, então, Jesus segunda vez: Paz seja convosco; assim como o Pai me enviou, também eu vos envio a vós.

22 E havendo dito isso, assoprou sobre eles, e disse-lhes: Recebei o Espírito Santo.

23 Àqueles a quem perdoardes os pecados, são-lhes perdoados; e àqueles a quem os retiverdes, são-lhes retidos.
