1 Petrus 1:4

1:4 that is, ¹  into ²  an inheritance imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. It is reserved in heaven for you,

1 Petrus 3:21

3:21 And this prefigured baptism, which now saves you ³  – not the washing off of physical dirt ⁴  but the pledge ⁵  of a good conscience to God – through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

[1:4]  ¹ tn The phrase “that is” is supplied in the translation to indicate that the imperishable inheritance is in apposition to the living hope of v. 3.

[1:4]  ² tn Grk “into,” continuing the description of v. 3 without an “and.”

[3:21]  ³ tn Grk “which also, [as] an antitype, now saves you, [that is] baptism.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[3:21]  ⁴ tn Grk “the removal of the dirt of the flesh,” where flesh refers to the physical make-up of the body with no moral connotations.

[3:21]  ⁵ tn Or “response”; “answer.”
