Acts 21:24-31

24these takeG3880, and purifyG48 thyself with them, and beG1510 at charges for them, that they may shave their headsG2776: and all shall knowG1097 that there isG1510 no truth in the thingsG3778 whereof they have beenG1510 informed concerningG4012 thee; but that thou thyself alsoG2532 walkest orderly, keepingG5442 the lawG3551. 25But as touching the GentilesG1484 that have believedG4100, we wrote, giving judgment that they should keepG5442 themselves from things sacrificed to idols, and from bloodG129, and from what is strangled, and from fornication. 26ThenG5119 PaulG3972 tookG3880 the menG435, and the next dayG2250 purifyingG48 himself with them went into the temple, declaring the fulfilment of the daysG2250 of purification, until the offeringG4376 was offeredG4374 for every oneG1520 of them.

27And whenG5613 the sevenG2033 daysG2250 were almost completed, the JewsG2453 from AsiaG773, whenG5613 they sawG2300 him in the temple, stirred up all the multitudeG3793 and laidG1911 handsG5495 on him, 28cryingG2896 out, MenG444 of Israel, helpG997: This isG1510 the manG444 that teacheth all menG444 everywhereG3837 against the peopleG2992, and the lawG3551, and this placeG5117; and moreover he broughtG1521 GreeksG1672 alsoG2532 into the templeG2411, and hath defiledG2840 this holyG40 placeG5117. 29For they had before seen with him in the cityG4172 TrophimusG5161 the EphesianG2180, whom they supposed that PaulG3972 had broughtG1521 into the temple. 30And all the cityG4172 was movedG2795, and the peopleG2992 ran together; and they laid holdG1949 on PaulG3972, and dragged him out of the temple: and straightway the doorsG2374 were shutG2808. 31And as they were seekingG2212 to killG615 him, tidings cameG305 up to the chief captain of the band, that all JerusalemG2419 was in confusion.
