1 Moreover, from the 1blue and purple and scarlet material, they madefinely2wovengarments for ministering in the holy place as well as the holygarmentswhich were for Aaron, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
2
3He made the ephod of gold, and of blue and purple and scarlet material, and finetwistedlinen.
3
Then they hammered out goldsheets and cut them into threads to be woven in with the blue and the purple and the scarlet material, and the finelinen, the work of a skillfulworkman.
4
They madeattachingshoulder pieces for the ephod; it was attached at its two upper ends.
5
The skillfullywovenbandwhich was on it was like its workmanship, of the same material: of gold and of blue and purple and scarlet material, and finetwistedlinen, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
6
4They made the onyxstones, set in goldfiligree settings; they were engraved like the engravings of a signet, according to the names of the sons of Israel.
7
And 5he placed them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as memorialstones for the sons of Israel, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
8
6He made the breastpiece, the work of a skillfulworkman, like the workmanship of the ephod: of gold and of blue and purple and scarlet material and finetwistedlinen.
9
It was square; they made the breastpiecefoldeddouble, a spanlong and a spanwide when foldeddouble.
10
And they mountedfourrows of stones on it. The firstrow was a row of ruby, topaz, and emerald;
11
and the secondrow, a turquoise, a sapphire and a diamond;
12
and the thirdrow, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13
and the fourthrow, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were set in goldfiligree 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 breastpiecechains like cords, of twistedcordagework in puregold.
16
They madetwogoldfiligree settings and twogoldrings, and put the tworings on the twoends of the breastpiece.
17
Then they put the twogoldcords in the tworings at the ends of the breastpiece.
18
They put the other twoends of the twocords on the twofiligree settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.
19
They madetwogoldrings and placed them on the twoends of the breastpiece, on its inneredgewhich was next* to the ephod.
20
Furthermore, they madetwogoldrings and placed them on the bottom of the twoshoulder pieces of the ephod, on the front of it, close to the placewhere it joined, above* the wovenband of the ephod.
21
They bound the breastpiece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a bluecord, so that it would be on the wovenband of the ephod, and that the breastpiece would not comeloose from the ephod, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
22
7Then he made the robe of the ephod of wovenwork, all of blue;
23
8and the opening of the robe was at the top in the center, as the opening of a coat of mail, with a bindingallaround its opening, so that it would not be torn.
24
They madepomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet material and twisted linen on the hem of the robe.
25
They also madebells of puregold, and put the bellsbetween the pomegranatesallaround on the hem of the robe,
26
alternating a bell and a pomegranateallaround on the hem of the robe for the service, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
27
9They made the tunics of finelywovenlinen for Aaron and his sons,
28
and the turban of finelinen, and the decoratedcaps of finelinen, and the linenbreeches of finetwistedlinen,
29
and the sash of finetwistedlinen, and blue and purple and scarlet material, the work of the weaver, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
30
10They made the plate of the holycrown of puregold, and inscribed it like the engravings of a signet, "Holy to the LORD."
31
They fastened a bluecord to it, to fasten it on the turbanabove*, just as the LORD had commandedMoses.
32
Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed; and the sons of Israeldid according to all that the LORD had commandedMoses; so they did.
33
They brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings: its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars and its sockets;
34
and the covering of rams'skinsdyedred, and the covering of porpoiseskins, and the screeningveil;
35
the ark of the testimony and its poles and the mercyseat;
36
the table, all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;
37
the pure gold lampstand, with its arrangement of lamps and all its utensils, and the oil for the light;
38
and the goldaltar, and the anointingoil and the fragrantincense, and the veil for the doorway of the tent;
39
the bronzealtar and its bronzegrating, its poles and all its utensils, the laver and its stand;
40
