Luke 1:3 DBY

¹  Forasmuch as many have undertaken to draw up a relation concerning the matters fully believed among us,

²  as those who from the beginning were eye-witnesses of and attendants on the Word have delivered them to us,

³  it has seemed good to *me* also, accurately acquainted from the origin with all things, to write to thee with method, most excellent Theophilus,

⁴  that thou mightest know the certainty of those things in which thou hast been instructed.

⁵  There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abia, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth.
