Forsooth of jacinth, and purple, vermilion, and bis, he made [the] clothes in which Aaron was clothed, when he ministered in [the] holy things, as the Lord commanded to Moses. (And they made out of jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and fine linen, the clothes in which Aaron was clothed, when he served in the Holy Place, as the Lord commanded to Moses.)
2
Therefore he made the cloak on the shoulders of gold, jacinth, and purple, and of red silk twice-dyed, and of bis folded again, by work of embroidery; (And so they made the ephod out of gold, and jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and finely woven linen, and embroidered it;)
3
also he cut (up) thin golden plates, and made (them very) thin into threads, that those may be folded again, with the warp of the former colours; (and they cut up thin gold plates, and made them into very thin threads, to be woven into the warp of the other colours;)
4
and he made twain hems coupled to themselves together, in ever either side of the ends; (and they made two shoulder straps, fastened in the front, and behind, to the top edges of the ephod, to secure it;)
5
and he made a girdle of the same colours, as the Lord commanded to Moses. (and they made the waistband out of the same things, and joined it to the ephod to form one piece, as the Lord commanded to Moses.)
6
And he made ready two onyx stones, bound and closed in gold, and graved by the craft of a worker in gems with the names of the sons of Israel; (And they prepared two onyx stones, bound and enclosed in gold, and engraved by the craft of a worker in gems with the names of the sons of Israel;)
7
six names in one stone, and six in the tother stone, by the order of their birth. And he set those stones in the side(s) of the cloak on the shoulders, into a memorial of the sons of Israel, as the Lord commanded to Moses. (six names on one stone, and six on the other stone, in their birth order. And they fastened those stones onto the two shoulder straps of the ephod, as a reminder of the twelve tribes of Israel, as the Lord commanded to Moses.)
8
He made also the rational, by work of embroidery, by the work of the cloak on the shoulders, of gold, jacinth, purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and of bis folded again; (And they made the breast-piece, like the ephod, out of gold, and jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and finely woven linen, and embroidered it;)
9
he made the rational four-cornered, double, of the measure of four fingers. (and they made the breast-piece square, and folded over double, measuring four fingers thick.)
10
And he set therein four orders of gems; in the first order was sardius, topaz, smaragdus; (And they fastened four rows of gems to it; in the first row was sardius, topaz, and emerald;)
11
in the second order was carbuncle, sapphire, jasper; (in the second row was carbuncle, sapphire, and jasper;)
