Acts 21:24-26

24take them along and 1purify yourself together with them, and 2pay their expenses so that they may 3shave their 4heads; and then everyone will know that there is nothing to what they have been told about you, but that you yourself also conform, keeping the Law. 25But regarding the Gentiles who have believed, we sent a letter, 5having decided that they should abstain from 6meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and what is 7strangled, and from sexual immorality.” 26Then Paul 8took along the men, and the next day, after 9purifying himself together with them, he 10went into the temple giving notice of the completion of the days of purification, until the sacrifice was offered for each one of them.
