方今已有數子、按據當初親炙聖道、宣述宏化者之所口授、

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

Many people have attempted to write about the things that have taken place among us.

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

Many people have set out to write accounts about the events that have been fulfilled among us.

Many have undertaken to compile a narrative about the events that have been fulfilled among us,

Since many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us,

Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us,

Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled 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,

I wrote the former account, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teachuntil the day he was taken up to heaven, after he had given orders by the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.To the same apostles also, after his suffering, he presented himself alive with many convincing proofs. He was seen by them over a forty- day period and spoke about matters concerning the kingdom of God.

But these are recorded so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

For we did not follow cleverly concocted fables when we made known to you the power and return of our Lord Jesus Christ; no, we were eyewitnesses of his grandeur.For he received honor and glory from God the Father, when that voice was conveyed to him by the Majestic Glory:“ This is my dear Son, in whom I am delighted.”When this voice was conveyed from heaven, we ourselves heard it, for we were with him on the holy mountain.Moreover, we possess the prophetic word as an altogether reliable thing. You do well if you pay attention to this as you would to a light shining in a murky place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

And we all agree, our religion contains amazing revelation: He was revealed in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among Gentiles, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message would be fully proclaimed for all the Gentiles to hear. And so I was delivered from the lion’s mouth!
