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.)
