16having a good conscience; that, wherein ye are spoken against, they may be put to shame who revile your good manner of life in Christ.
17For it is better, if the will of God should so will, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing.
18Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
19in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison,
20that aforetime were disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:
21which also after a true likeness doth now save you, [even] baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ;
22who is one the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
