02:028:018 And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a
diamond.
02:028:019 And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
02:028:020 And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they
shall be set in gold in their inclosings.
02:028:021 And the stones shall be with the names of the children of
Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a
signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve
tribes.
02:028:022 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends
of wreathen work of pure gold.
02:028:023 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold,
and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
02:028:024 And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the
two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate.
02:028:025 And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt
fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the
ephod before it.
02:028:026 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put
them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the border thereof, which
is in the side of the ephod inward.
02:028:027 And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put
them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart
thereof, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious
girdle of the ephod.
02:028:028 And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof
unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above
the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed
from the ephod.
02:028:029 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in
the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the
holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
02:028:030 And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim
and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in
before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of
Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.
02:028:031 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
02:028:032 And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst
thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of
it, as it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be not rent.
02:028:033 And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates
of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof;
and bells of gold between them round about:
02:028:034 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a
pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
02:028:035 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall
be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when
he cometh out, that he die not.
02:028:036 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it,
like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
