Exodus 39:6-20
English Standard Version
Chapter 39
6They made the onyx stones, enclosed in settings of gold filigree, and engraved like the engravings of a signet, according to the names of the sons of Israel. 7And he set them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod to be stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
8He made the breastpiece, in skilled work, in the style of the ephod, of gold, blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and fine twined linen.
9It was square. They made the breastpiece doubled, a span its length and a span its breadth when doubled.
10And they set in it four rows of stones. A row of sardius, topaz, and carbuncle was the first row;
11and the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond;
12and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold filigree.
14There were twelve stones with their names according to the names of the sons of Israel. They were like signets, each engraved with its name, for the twelve tribes.
15And they made on the breastpiece twisted chains like cords, of pure gold.
16And they made two settings of gold filigree and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two edges of the breastpiece.
17And they put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the edges of the breastpiece.
18They attached the two ends of the two cords to the two settings of filigree. Thus they attached it in front to the shoulder pieces of the ephod.
19Then they made two rings of gold, and put them at the two ends of the breastpiece, on its inside edge next to the ephod.
20And they made two rings of gold, and attached them in front to the lower part of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, at its seam above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
