Exodus 39:2-7

The Linen Apron

2 The workers made the linen apron out of fine gold wire, and out of blue, purple and bright red yarn, and out of finely twisted linen.
3 They hammered out thin sheets of gold. They cut it into fine wire. They sewed it into the blue, purple and bright red yarn and fine linen. A skilled worker made it.
4 The workers made shoulder straps for the apron. The straps were joined to two of its corners.
5 Its skillfully made waistband was made like it. The waistband was part of the apron itself. It was made out of fine gold wire, and out of blue, purple and bright red yarn, and out of finely twisted linen. The workers made it just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
6 They put the onyx stones in fancy gold settings. They carved the names of the sons of Israel on them. They did it the way a person carves a seal.
7 Then they connected them to the shoulder straps of the linen apron. The stones stood for the sons of Israel and were a reminder for them. The workers did those things just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
