Acts 21:17-26

17AfterG1161 we arrivedG1096 in JerusalemG2414, 1the brothersG80 and sisters receivedG588 us gladlyG780. 18And the followingG1897 day PaulG3972 wentG1524 inG1524 with us to 23JamesG2385, and allG3956 4the eldersG4245 were presentG3854. 19After he had greetedG782 them, he 5began to relateG1834 oneG1520 by oneG1520 the things whichG3739 GodG2316 had doneG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 throughG1223 his 6ministryG1248. 20And when they heardG191 about them, they began 7glorifyingG1392 GodG2316; and they saidG3004 to him, “You seeG2334, brotherG80, howG4214 manyG4214 8thousandsG3461 there are amongG1722 the JewsG2453 of thoseG3588 who have believedG4100, and they are allG3956 9zealousG2207 for the LawG3551; 21and they have been toldG2727 aboutG4012 you, that you are 10teachingG1321 allG3956 the JewsG2453 who are amongG2596 the GentilesG1484 to abandonG646 MosesG3475, tellingG3004 them 11not to circumciseG4059 their childrenG5043 norG3366 to 12walkG4043 according to 13the customsG1485. 22SoG3767 whatG5101 is to be done? They will certainlyG3843 hearG191 that you have comeG2064. 23ThereforeG3767, doG4160 14as we tellG3004 you: we have fourG5064 menG435 who 15have a 16vowG2171 upon themselves; 24takeG3880 them alongG3880 and 17purifyG48 yourself togetherG4862 with them, and 18payG1159 their expensesG1159 soG2443 thatG2443 they may 19shaveG3587 their 20headsG2776; and then everyoneG3956 will knowG1097 that there is nothingG3762 to whatG3739 they have been toldG2727 aboutG4012 you, but that you yourselfG846 alsoG2532 conformG4748, keepingG5442 the LawG3551. 25But regardingG4012 the GentilesG1484 who have believedG4100, we sentG1989 aG1989 letterG1989, 21having decidedG2919 that they should abstainG5442 from 22meatG3588 sacrificedG1494 toG1494 idolsG1494 and from bloodG129 and what is 23strangledG4156, and from sexualG4202 immoralityG4202.” 26ThenG5119 PaulG3972 24tookG3880 alongG3880 the menG435, and the nextG2192 dayG2250, after 25purifyingG48 himself togetherG4862 with them, he 26wentG1524 into the templeG2413 givingG1229 noticeG1229 of the completionG1604 of the daysG2250 of purificationG49, untilG2193 the sacrificeG4376 was offeredG4374 for eachG1538 oneG1520 of them.
