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 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.
