11 and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire and a diamond;
12 and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13 and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were set in gold filigree settings when they were mounted.
14 The stones were corresponding to the names of the sons of Israel; they were twelve , corresponding to their names, engraved with the engravings of a signet, each with its name for the twelve tribes.
15 They made on the breastpiece chains like cords, of twisted cordage work in pure gold.
