John 20:19-23

Riverside(i) 19 In the evening of that day, the first day of the week, when the doors had been closed where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and said to them, "Peace be with you." 20 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were filled with joy on seeing the Master. 21 He said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father sent me forth so I am sending you." 22 When he had said this, he breathed on them and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven. If you retain the sins of any, they are retained."
