John 20:26-31
Young's Literal Translation
26 And after eight days, again were his disciples within, and Thomas with them; Jesus cometh, the doors having been shut, and he stood in the midst, and said, `Peace to you!'
27 then he saith to Thomas, `Bring thy finger hither, and see my hands, and bring thy hand, and put [it] to my side, and become not unbelieving, but believing.'
28 And Thomas answered and said to him, `My Lord and my God;'
29 Jesus saith to him, `Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed; happy those not having seen, and having believed.'
30 Many indeed, therefore, other signs also did Jesus before his disciples, that are not written in this book;
31 and these have been written that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye may have life in his name.'

John 20:26-31
New American Standard Bible
26 [a]Eight days later His disciples were again inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus *came, the doors having been [b]shut, and stood in their midst and said, “(A)Peace be to you.” 27 Then He *said to Thomas, “(B)Place your finger here, and see My hands; and take your hand and put it into My side; and do not continue in disbelief, but be a believer.” 28 Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus *said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you now believed? (C)Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.”
Why This Gospel Was Written
30 (D)So then, many other [c](E)signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these have been written (F)so that you may believe that Jesus is the [d]Christ, (G)the Son of God; and that by (H)believing you may have life in His name.
