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 Judeans, Yeshua 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 Yeshua 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 Naquela noite, encontravam-se os discípulos reunidos à porta fechada, com medo dos judeus, quando surgiu Jesus no meio deles dizendo: A paz seja convosco!

20 Depois de os saudar, mostrou-lhes as mãos e o lado. E qual não foi a alegria deles ao verem o Senhor!

21 Ele tornou a falar-lhes: A paz seja convosco. Assim como o Pai me enviou, também eu vos envio. E, soprando sobre eles, acrescentou: Recebam o Espírito Santo. Se perdoarem a alguém os seus pecados, perdoados ficam. Se se recusarem a perdoá-los, ficarão por perdoar.
