Welchen ihr die Sünden erlasset, denen sind sie erlassen; und welchen ihr sie behaltet, denen sind sie behalten.
A los que remitiereis los pecados, les son remitidos: a quienes los retuviereis, serán retenidos.
A quienes perdonen los pecados, les han sido perdonados; a quienes se los retengan, les han sido retenidos».
Ceux à qui vous pardonnerez les péchés, ils leur seront pardonnés; et ceux à qui vous les retiendrez, ils leur seront retenus.
A cui voi avrete rimessi i peccati saran rimessi, ed a cui li avrete ritenuti saran ritenuti.
Àqueles a quem perdoardes os pecados lhes são perdoados; e àqueles a quem os retiverdes lhes são retidos.
你們赦免誰的罪,誰的罪就得赦免;你們不赦免誰的罪,誰的罪就不得赦免。」
