Forsooth they setted the rings on ever either side of the rational, (And they fastened the rings to the upper corners of the breast-piece,)
18
on which rings [the] two golden chains hanged, which they setted in the hooks, that stood forth in the corners of the cloak on the shoulders. (and they joined the two gold chains to the rings, and then joined the other ends of the chains to the two hooks, which they fastened to the upper part of the front of the two shoulder straps of the ephod.)
19
These accorded so to themselves, both before and behind, (so) that the cloak on the shoulders, and the rational, (And they made two gold rings, which they fastened to the lower corners of the breast-piece, by the hem of the ephod, so that they were opposite each other;)
20
were knitted together, and fastened to the girdle, (and two gold rings, which they fastened to the lower part of the front of the two shoulder straps of the ephod, near the seam, and above the waistband.)
21
and coupled full strongly with the rings, which rings a lace of jacinth joined together, lest they were loosed, and slacked, and were moved (away) each from (the) other; as the Lord commanded to Moses. (And then the breast-piece was bound by its rings to the rings of the ephod, with a lace of jacinth, so that the joining would stay secure, and the breast-piece and the ephod would not separate from each other; all as the Lord commanded to Moses.)
22
They made also a coat on the shoulders, or alb, all of jacinth; (And they made the robe, or the alb, out of jacinth,)

24
forsooth beneath at the feet they made pineapples of jacinth, and purple, and vermilion, and bis folded again; (and on the lower hem they put pomegranates made out of jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and finely woven linen;)
25
and they made little bells of purest gold, which they setted betwixt the pomegranates, in the hem of the alb, by compass; (and they made little bells out of pure gold, which they put between the pomegranates, all around the hem of the robe;)
26
a golden little bell, and a pineapple; with which the bishop went adorned, when he was set in service, as the Lord commanded to Moses. (a little gold bell, and a pomegranate, and another little gold bell, and a pomegranate, and so on, all around the hem; with which the High Priest went adorned, when he was ministering, as the Lord commanded to Moses.)
27
They made also coats of bis, (that is, linen clothes,) by woven work, to Aaron and to his sons, (And they made finely woven linen shirts, or tunics, for Aaron and his sons,)
