2 Peter 2:5-9 if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon an ungodly world;

MNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon an ungodly world; ⁶ if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, thus holding them up as a warning to all who would live ungodly; ⁷ and he delivered righteous Lot who was worn out by the lascivious life of the wicked ⁸ (for that righteous man, living among them, tormented his righteous soul in seeing and hearing, day after day, their lawless deeds), ⁹ then be sure that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the wicked (who are even now enduring punishment) for the "Day of Judgment";
