Second letter of Peter 2:4

For God did not spare the angels who had sinned, but cast them into the lowest abyss (Gk. tartaros). He delivered them to the chains of darkness to be kept there until the judgment.
[This is the only time the word tartaros is used in the New Testament. In Greek mythology, Tartaros was a lower level of Hades (the realm of the dead). The worst sinners were brought here and punished day and night. Peter borrows this word to describe a temporary place for fallen angels until the final judgment of Rev 20:10-14. Since the context is Noah, see verse 5, these angels may refer to the angels who rebelled and sinned against God's command by having sexual relations with women, see Gen. 6:1–4.]
