1 Peter 4:4-6

American Standard Version

⁴ wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them into the same ^[a]excess of riot, speaking evil of you: ⁵ who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead. ⁶ For unto this end ^[b]was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
