1 Peter 4:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ They will have to reckon with the one who is ready to judge the living and the dead. ⁶ Indeed, this is the reason the good news was also preached to the dead. This happened so that, although they were judged as humans according to human standards, they could live by the Spirit according to divine standards.

⁷ The end of everything has come. Therefore, be self-controlled and clearheaded so you can pray.
