Gospel, John 20:19-23 (EN) - (HR) Evanđelje po Ivanu 20:19-23

(EN) On the evening of that first day of the week,
when the doors were locked, where the disciples were,

for fear of the Jews,
Jesus came and stood in their midst
and said to them, "Peace be with you."
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side.
The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you.
As the Father has sent me, so I send you."
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,
"Receive the Holy Spirit.
Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,
and whose sins you retain are retained."

(HR) 19 Te su se večeri prvoga dana u tjednu učenici sastali iza zaključanih vrata zbog straha od židovskih vođa kad odjednom među njih stane Isus. Pozdravi ih: 'Mir vama!'
20 Kad im je to rekao, pokaže im svoje ruke i bok. Učenici se razvesele kad ugledaju svojega Gospodina.
21 Isus im opet reče: 'Mir vama! Kao što je mene poslao Otac, tako i ja šaljem vas.'
22 Zatim dahne u njih i reče: 'Primite Svetoga Duha!
23 Kojima oprostite grijehe, oprošteni su im. Kojima ne oprostite grijehe, nisu im oprošteni.'
