Acts 21:23-26

23Therefore do this that we tell you. We have four men who 12are under a vow; 24take them and 3purify yourself along with them, and 4pay their expenses so that they may 5shave their 6heads; and all will know that there is nothing to the things which they have been told about you, but that you yourself also walk orderly, keeping the Law. 25But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we wrote, 7having decided that they should abstain from 8meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from fornication.” 26Then Paul 9took the men, and the next day, 10purifying himself along with them, 11went into the temple giving notice of the completion of the days of purification, until the sacrifice was offered for each one of them.
