6
And they shall make the ephod
of
gold,
of
blue, and
of
purple,
of
scarlet, and fine twined linen,
with cunning work.
7
It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof;
and
so
it shall be joined together.
8
And the curious girdle of the ephod, which
is
upon it, shall be
of the same, according to the work thereof;
even of
gold,
of
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined linen.
9
And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children
of Israel:
10
Six of their names on one stone, and
the other
six names of the rest on the other stone,
according to their birth.
11
With the work of an engraver in stone,
like
the engravings of a signet,
shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to
be set in ouches of gold.
12
And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod
for
stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the L
ORD
upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13
And thou shalt make ouches
of
gold;
14
And two chains
of
pure gold at the ends;
of
wreathen
work shalt thou make them, and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches.
15
And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the
ephod thou shalt make it;
of
gold,
of
blue, and
of
purple, and
of
scarlet, and
of
fine twined linen,
shalt thou make it.
16
Foursquare it shall be
being
doubled; a span
shall be
the length thereof, and
a span
shall be
the breadth thereof.
17
And thou shalt set in it settings of stones,
even
four rows of
stones:
the first
row
shall be
a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle:
this shall be
the first row.
18
And
the second row
shall be
an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19
And the third row a ligure, an
agate, and an amethyst.
20
And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set
in gold in their inclosings.
21
And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve,
according to their names,
like
the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be
according to the twelve tribes.
22
And thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends
of
wreathen work
of
pure gold.
23
And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the
two ends of the breastplate.
24
And thou shalt put the two wreathen
chains
of gold in the two rings
which are
on the ends of the breastplate.
25
And
the other
two ends of the two wreathen
chains
thou
shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put
them
on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it.
26
And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the
breastplate in the border thereof, which
is
in the side of the ephod inward.
27
And two
other
rings
of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the
forepart thereof, over against the
other
coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.
28
And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of
blue, that
it
may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed
from the ephod.
29
And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of
judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy
place,
for a memorial before the L
ORD
continually.
