RSV ~ Luke 1 v1 - 4

Lk 1:1-4 | Dedication to Theophilus

1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things which have been accomplished among us,

2 just as they were delivered to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word,

3 it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theoph’ilus,

4 that you may know the truth concerning the things of which you have been informed.
