Exodus 39:12 In-Context

10 And they set in it four orders of stones. The order was a ruby, an emerald, and a chrysolite: this was the first order.

11 The second order, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond.

12 The third order, a topaz, a turquoise, and an amethyst.

13 And the fourth order, a tarshish (or beryl), an onyx, and a jasper; they were set and inclosed in their settings of gold.

14 The stones were in agreement with the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, in agreement with their names, like the engravings of a seal, each one in agreement with his name, according to the twelve tribes.
