who before were disobedient when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

ગુજરાતીપિતરનો પહેલો પત્ર ૩:૨૦
આ આત્માઓ, નૂહના સમયમાં અનાજ્ઞાંકિત હતા, જયારે વહાણ તૈયાર થતું હતું અને ઈશ્વર સહન કરીને ધીરજ રાખતા હતા, અને જયારે વહાણમાં થોડા લોકો, એટલે આઠ મનુષ્યો પાણીથી બચી ગયા.
हिन्दी1 पतरस ३:२०
जिन्होंने उस बीते समय में आज्ञा न मानी जब परमेश्वर नूह के दिनों में धीरज धरकर ठहरा रहा, और वह जहाज बन रहा था, जिसमें बैठकर कुछ लोग अर्थात् आठ प्राणी पानी के द्वारा बच गए।

In context

18Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,

19in whom he also went and preached to the spirits in prison,

20who before were disobedient when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

21This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you—not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

22who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
