Juan 20
1 Temprano, el primer día de la semana, mientras aún estaba oscuro, María Magdalena fue a la tumba y vio que habían movido la piedra que estaba a la entrada.
Early on Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary, the woman from Magdala [village], went to the [burial] cave [with some other women]. They saw that the stone had been removed {that someone had removed the stone} from the [entrance to the] cave.
2 Entonces ella salió corriendo para decirle a Simón Pedro y al otro discípulo, al que Jesús amaba: “Se han llevado al Señor de la tumba, y no sabemos dónde lo han puesto”.
So Mary ran to where Simon Peter and I [were staying in Jerusalem]. She said to us, “They have taken the Lord’s [body] out of the burial cave, and we do not know where they have put it!”
3 Entonces Pedro y el otro discípulo fueron a la tumba.
So Peter and I started going to the cave.
4 Ambos iban corriendo, pero el otro discípulo corrió más rápido y llegó primero.
We were both running, but I ran faster than Peter and got there first.
5 Se agachó, y al mirar hacia adentro, vio que los paños fúnebres estaban allí, pero no entró.
I stooped down [at the entrance] and looked inside. I saw the strips of linen cloth lying there [where his body had been laid], but I did not go inside.
6 Entonces Simón Pedro llegó después de él y entró a la tumba. Vio los paños fúnebres de lino que estaban allí,
Then Simon Peter, who was running behind me, arrived. He went inside the cave. He, too, saw the strips of linen cloth lying there.
7 y que el paño con que habían cubierto la cabeza de Jesús no estaba con los demás paños fúnebres sino que lo habían doblado y lo habían colocado solo aparte.
He also [saw the] cloth that they had [wrapped] around Jesus’ head. It had been folded and put {Someone had folded it and put it} aside, separate from the linen strips.
8 Entonces el otro discípulo que había llegado primero a la tumba, entró también.
Then I also went inside. I saw [those things] and I believed [that Jesus had truly become alive again].
9 Miró alrededor y creyó entonces que era verdad—porque hasta ese momento ellos no habían entendido la Escritura de que Jesús tenía que levantase de los muertos.
Before this happened, we did not understand from [what the prophets had written in] the Scriptures, that he had to become alive again after he died.
10 Entonces los discípulos regresaron al lugar donde se estaban quedando.
Then [we two] disciples went back to where we were staying. [In the meantime], Mary [returned to the cave].
11 Pero María permaneció fuera de la tumba llorando, y mientras lloraba, se agachó y miró hacia adentro de la tumba.
As she stood outside the cave crying, she stooped down to look inside the cave.
12 Vio allí a dos ángeles vestidos de blanco, uno sentado a la cabeza y el otro sentado a los pies del lugar donde había estado el cuerpo de Jesús.
She saw two angels in very white [clothing], sitting at the place where Jesus’ body had been laid. One was where his head had been, and the other was where his feet had been.
13 “¿Por qué estás llorando?” le preguntaron. Ella respondió: “Porque se han llevado a mi Señor, y no sé dónde lo han puesto”.
They said to her, “Woman, why are you crying?” She said to them, “They have taken away [the body of] my Lord, and I do not know where they have put it!”
14 Después que dijo esto, volvió a mirar y vio a Jesús que estaba allí, pero ella no se dio cuenta de que era Jesús.
After she said that, she turned around and saw Jesus standing [there], but she did not know that it was Jesus.
15 “¿Por qué estás llorando?” le preguntó él. “¿A quién estás buscando?” Creyendo que era el jardinero, ella le dijo: “Señor, si te lo has llevado, dime dónde lo has puesto para yo ir a buscarlo”.
He said to her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?” Thinking that he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have taken his [body] away, tell me where you have put it. Then I will get it [and bury it properly].”
16 Jesús le dijo: “María”. Ella se dirigió hacia él y dijo: “Rabboni”, que significa “Maestro” en hebreo.
Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned toward him [again and recognized him]. Then she exclaimed in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” which means ‘Teacher’.
17 “Suéltame”, le dijo Jesús, “porque aún no he ascendido a mi Padre; más bien ve donde mis hermanos y diles que voy a ascender a mi Padre, y Padre de ustedes, mi Dios y el Dios de ustedes”.
Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to me, because I have not yet returned to my Father. Go to my disciples and tell them, ‘I am about to return to my Father and your Father, to the one who is my God and your God’.”
18 Entonces María Magdalena fue y le dijo a los discípulos: “He visto al Señor”, y les explicó lo que él le había dicho.
So Mary went to where [we] disciples were and told us that she had seen the Lord [alive again]. She also told us what Jesus said that she [should tell us].
19 Esa noche, siendo el primer día de la semana, cuando los discípulos se reunieron a puerta cerrada porque tenían mucho temor de los judíos, Jesús llegó y se puso en medio de ellos y dijo: “Tengan paz”.
On that Sunday evening [we] disciples gathered together. The doors were locked {[We] locked the doors} because we were afraid that [the Jewish leaders] [SYN] [might arrest us. Suddenly] Jesus appeared [miraculously] and stood among us! He said to us, “May God give you [inner] peace!”
20 Después de este saludo, les mostró sus manos y su costado. Los discípulos estaban llenos de alegría por ver al Señor.
After he said that, he showed us [the wounds in] his hands and his side. We were very happy when we saw the Lord!
21 “¡Tengan paz!” les dijo Jesús otra vez. “De la misma manera que el Padre me envió, así yo los estoy enviando a ustedes”.
Jesus said to us again, “May God give you peace! Just like [my] Father sent me, now I am sending you [to proclaim my message].”
22 Mientras decía esto, sopló sobre ellos y les dijo: “Reciban el Espíritu Santo.
After saying that, he breathed on us and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit!
23 Si ustedes perdonan los pecados a alguien, le serán perdonados; pero si ustedes no lo perdonan, quedarán sin ser perdonados”.
If you forgive people for their having sinned, [God will already] have forgiven them. If you do not forgive them, [God] has not forgiven them.”
24 Uno de los doce discípulos, Tomás, a quien le decían el gemelo, no estaba allí cuando Jesús llegó.
One of us disciples, Thomas, the one whom we called The Twin, was not with us when Jesus appeared to us.
25 Así que los otros discípulos le dijeron: “Hemos visto al Señor”. Pero él respondió: “No lo creeré hasta que vea las marcas de los clavos en sus manos y ponga mi dedo en ellas, y ponga mi mano en su costado”.
When the rest of us told him that we had seen the Lord, he said to us, “If I do not see the marks of the nails in his hands and put my fingers in the place where the nails were, and put my hands into the place in his side [where the soldier thrust the spear], I will certainly not believe [that he was the one you saw]!”
26 Una semana después, los discípulos estaban reunidos dentro de la casa y Tomás estaba con ellos. Las puertas estaban cerradas, y Jesús llegó y se puso en medio de ellos. “¡Tengan paz!” dijo.
A week later we were in [the house] again. This time Thomas was with us. Although the doors had been locked {[we] had locked the doors}, Jesus [again] appeared [miraculously] and stood among us. He said, “May God give peace to you!”
27 Entonces le dijo a Tomás: “Coloca aquí tu dedo, y mira mis manos. Coloca tu mano en la herida que tengo en mi costado. ¡Deja de dudar y cree en mí!
Then he [showed] Thomas [his hands] and said to him, “Put your finger here! Look at [the wounds in] my hands! Reach out your hand and put it in [the wound in] my side! Stop doubting [LIT/DOU]! Instead, believe [that I am alive again]!”
28 “¡Mi señor y mi Dios!” respondió Tomás.
Thomas answered him, “[You are truly] my Lord and my God!”
29 “Crees en mí porque me has visto”, le dijo Jesús. “Felices aquellos que no han visto, y sin embargo aún creen en mí”.
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed [that about me]. But God [is truly] pleased with those who have believed [that about me], even though they have not seen me!”
30 Jesús hizo muchas otras señales milagrosas mientras estuvo con los discípulos, y que no se registran en este libro.
[We] disciples saw Jesus perform many other miracles, but [I] have not written about them in this book.
31 Pero estas cosas están escritas aquí para que ustedes puedan creer que Jesús es el Mesías, el Hijo de Dios, y que al creer en quien él es, ustedes tengan vida.
But these [that I have written about, I] have written about them in order that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, (the Son of God/the man who is also God), and in order that you may have [eternal] life [by trusting] (in him/ in what he [has done for you]) [MTY].
