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 En toe dit aand was op daardie eerste dag van die week en die deure waar die dissipels vergader het uit vrees vir die Jode, gesluit was, het Jesus gekom en in hul midde gestaan en aan hulle gesê: Vrede vir julle!

20 En nadat Hy dit gesê het, wys Hy hulle sy hande en sy sy. En die dissipels was bly toe hulle die Here sien.

21 Jesus sê toe weer vir hulle: Vrede vir julle! Soos die Vader My gestuur het, stuur Ek julle ook.

22 En nadat Hy dit gesê het, blaas Hy op hulle en sê vir hulle: Ontvang die Heilige Gees.

23 As julle die mense hulle sondes vergewe, dan word dit hulle vergewe; as julle die mense hulle sondes hou, dan is dit gehou.
