1 Peter 3:18-20
English Standard Version
18 For Christ also (A)suffered[a] (B)once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, (C)that he might bring us to God, being put to death (D)in the flesh but made alive (E)in the spirit, 19 in which[b] he went and (F)proclaimed[c] to the spirits in prison, 20 because[d] they formerly did not obey, (G)when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, (H)while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, (I)eight persons, were brought safely through water.

Colossians 2:13-15
English Standard Version
13 (A)And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God (B)made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by (C)canceling (D)the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. 15 (E)He disarmed the rulers and authorities[a] and (F)put them to open shame, by (G)triumphing over them in him.[b]
