Acts 21:23-25
New American Standard Bible
23 Therefore, do [a]as we tell you: we have four men who (A)have a [b]vow upon themselves; 24 take them along and (B)purify yourself together with them, and [c]pay their expenses so that they may (C)shave their [d]heads; 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. 25 But regarding the Gentiles who have believed, we sent a letter, (D)having decided that they should abstain from [e]meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and what is [f]strangled, and from sexual immorality.”

New International Version
23 so do what we tell you. There are four men with us who have made a vow.(A) 24 Take these men, join in their purification rites(B) and pay their expenses, so that they can have their heads shaved.(C) Then everyone will know there is no truth in these reports about you, but that you yourself are living in obedience to the law. 25 As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they should abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality.”(D)
