Luke 1:1-4

NKJV

NIV

1 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us,
1 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,
2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word delivered them to us,
2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
3 it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus,
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 that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.
4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
