| Elberfelder 1905 (German) (ELB) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 21 welches Gegenbild auch euch jetzt errettet, das ist die Taufe (nicht ein Ablegen der Unreinigkeit des Fleisches, sondern das Begehren eines guten Gewissens vor Gott), durch die Auferstehung Jesu Christi, | 21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also--not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a good conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, |
