NASB
"Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us,"
— Luke 1:1, NASB
“Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,”
“Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us, ”
“Since many have undertaken to set in order a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,”
“¶ Explanatory Preface Now many have undertaken to compile an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,”
“Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a narration of the things that have been accomplished among us,”
“As a number of attempts have been made to put together in order an account of those events which took place among us,”
“Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,”
Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us,
just as they were handed down to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word,
it seemed fitting for me as well, having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, to write it out for you in consecutive order, most excellent Theophilus;
so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught.
