7 And they had materials sufficient for making the furniture, and they left some besides.
8 And every wise one among those that wrought made the robes of the holy places, which belong to Aaron the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.
9 And he made the ephod of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
10 And the plates were divided, the threads of gold, so as to interweave with the blue and purple, and with the spun scarlet, and the fine linen twined, they made it a woven work;
