1 Peter 3:18-20
Lexham English Bible
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins,
the just for the unjust,
in order that he could bring you to God,
being put to death in the flesh,
but made alive in the spirit,
19 in which also he went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison,
20 who were formerly disobedient, when the patience of God waited in the days of Noah, while[a] an ark was being constructed, in which a few—that is, eight souls—were rescued through water.
