1 Peter 3:19-21

Modern English Version

¹⁹ by whom He also went and preached to the spirits in prison, ²⁰ who in times past were disobedient, when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. ²¹ Figuratively this is like baptism, which also saves us now. It is not washing off the dirt from the body, but a response to God from a good conscience through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
