• "21 [Jesus] said to them again, 'Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.'
  22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, 'Receive the holy Spirit.
  23 Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained'."

  (NABRE, John 20: 21-23)

  "The sacrament of Penance is a whole consisting in three actions of the penitent and the priest's absolution. The penitent's acts are repentance, confession or disclosure of sins to the priests, and the intention to make reparation and do works of reparation."

  (Catechism of the Catholic Church ¶1491)
