Book 3 The Gospel According to Luke Luke
Luke|1:1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
Luke|1:2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
Luke|1:3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
Luke|1:4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
Luke|1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elisabeth.
Luke|1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Luke|1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.
Luke|1:8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
Luke|1:9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
Luke|1:10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense. LUKE | Holy Bible | New Testament | King James | Book 3 The Gospel According to Luke
