Acts 21:24

---

← Acts 21:23	Acts 21:24 (KJV)	Acts 21:25 →
Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;	Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave [their] heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but [that] thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.	As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written [and] concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from [things] offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.
