1 Peter 3:21 BBE

¹⁹  By whom he went to the spirits in prison, preaching to those

²⁰  Who, in the days of Noah, went against God's orders; but God in his mercy kept back the punishment, while Noah got ready the ark, in which a small number, that is to say eight persons, got salvation through water:

²¹  And baptism, of which this is an image, now gives you salvation, not by washing clean the flesh, but by making you free from the sense of sin before God, through the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead;

²²  Who has gone into heaven, and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been put under his rule.
