Making the Garments of the Priesthood
1 Of the ablue, purple, and scarlet thread they made bgarments of ministry, for ministering in the2 holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, cas the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Ephod
2 aHe made the bephod of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen.
3 And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut it into threads, to work it in with the blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and the fine linen, into artistic designs.
4 They made shoulder straps for it to couple it together; it was coupled together at its two edges.
5 And the intricately woven band of his ephod that was on it was of the same workmanship, woven of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
6 aAnd they set onyx stones, enclosed in1 settings of gold; they were engraved, as signets are engraved, with the names of the sons of Israel.
7 He put them on the shoulders of the ephod as amemorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Breastplate
8 aAnd he made the breastplate, artistically woven like the workmanship of the ephod, of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen.
9 They made the breastplate square by doubling it; a span was its length and a span its width when doubled.
