Exodus 39:8 In-Context

6 They mounted the two onyx stones in settings of gold filigree. The stones were engraved with the names of the tribes of Israel, just as a seal is engraved.
7 He fastened these stones on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod as a reminder that the priest represents the people of Israel. All this was done just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
8 Bezalel made the chestpiece with great skill and care. He made it to match the ephod, using finely woven linen embroidered with gold and with blue, purple, and scarlet thread.
9 He made the chestpiece of a single piece of cloth folded to form a pouch nine inches square.
10 They mounted four rows of gemstones on it. The first row contained a red carnelian, a pale-green peridot, and an emerald.
