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

20 E, dizendo isto, mostrou-lhes as suas mãos e o lado. De sorte que os discípulos se alegraram, vendo o Senhor.

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

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

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

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.
