Luke 1:1-4

Common English Bible CEB

1 Many people have already applied themselves to the task of compiling an account of the events that have been fulfilled among us.

2 They used what the original eyewitnesses and servants of the word handed down to us.

3 Now, after having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, I have also decided to write a carefully ordered account for you, most honorable Theophilus.

4 I want you to have confidence in the soundness of the instruction you have received.

New International Version NIV

1 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,

2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word.

3 With this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,

4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
