“Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them: and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.”
“Any to whom you give forgiveness, will be made free from their sins; and any from whom you keep back forgiveness, will still be in their sins.”
“Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.”
And when he had so said, he showed to them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be to you: as my Father has sent me, even so send I you.
And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and says to them, Receive you the Holy Ghost:
Whose soever sins you remit, they are remitted to them; and whose soever sins you retain, they are retained. ¶
But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
The other disciples therefore said to him, We have seen the LORD. But he said to them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe. ¶
And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the middle, and said, Peace be to you.
