Go with these men. Make yourself clean with them. Pay for them, so they can shave their heads. Then all will know the bad talk is not true. They will see you keep the law.

ASV
these take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges for them, that they may shave their heads: and all shall know that there is no truth in the things whereof they have been informed concerning thee; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, keeping the law.
