Acts 21:20–26

²⁰And when they heard it they began ^aglorifying God; and they said to him, “You see, brother, how many ¹thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed, and they are all ^bzealous for the Law;

²¹and they have been told about you, that you are ^ateaching all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them ^bnot to circumcise their children nor to ¹walk according to ^cthe customs.

²²“What, then, is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come.

²³“Therefore do this that we tell you. We have four men who ^1aare under a vow;

²⁴take them and ^apurify yourself along with them, and ¹pay their expenses so that they may ^bshave their ²heads; 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.

²⁵“But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we wrote, ^ahaving decided that they should abstain from ¹meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from fornication.”

²⁶Then Paul ¹took the men, and the next day, ^apurifying himself along with them, ^bwent into the temple giving notice of the completion of the days of purification, until the sacrifice was offered for each one of them.
