Evangelical Heritage Version
1 Peter 3:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
18 because Christ also suffered once for sins in our place,[a] the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you[b] to God. He was put to death in flesh[c] but was made alive in spirit,[d] 19 in which he also went and made an announcement to the spirits in prison. 20 These spirits disobeyed long ago, when God’s patience was waiting in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In this ark a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water.
