Exodus 39:17 In-Context

15 They made on the breastpiece chains of pure gold, twisted like cords;
16 and they made two settings of gold filigree and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two edges of the breastpiece;
17 and they put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the edges of the breastpiece.
18 Two ends of the two cords they had attached to the two settings of filigree; in this way they attached it in front to the shoulder-pieces of the ephod.
19 Then they made two rings of gold, and put them at the two ends of the breastpiece, on its inside edge next to the ephod.
