shalt yet make two rings of gold, and put them in the two edges of the
breastlap even in the borders thereof toward the inside of the Ephod
that is over against it. And yet two other rings of gold thou shalt
make, and put them on the two sides of the Ephod, beneath over against
the breastlap, alow where the sides are joined together upon the
broidered girdle of the Ephod. And they shall bind the breastlap by his
rings unto the rings of the Ephod with a lace of jacinth, that it may
lie close unto the broidered girdle of the Ephod, that the breastlap be
not lowsed from the Ephod. And Aaron shall bear the names of the
children Israel in the breastlap of ensample upon his heart, when he
goeth into the holy place, for a remembrance before the LORD alway. And
thou shalt put in the breastlap of ensample light and perfectness: that
they be even upon Aaron's heart when he goeth in before the LORD and
Aaron shall bear the example of the children of Israel upon his heart
before the LORD alway. And thou shalt make the tunicle unto the Ephod,
altogether of Iacinth. And there shall be an hole for the head in the
midst of it, and let there be a bond of woven work round about the
collar of it: as it were the collar of a partlet, that it rend not. And
beneath upon the hem, thou shalt make pomegranates of Iacincth, of
scarlet, and of purple round about the hem, and bells of gold between
them round about: that there be ever a golden bell and a pomegranate, a
golden bell and a pomegranate round about upon the hem of the tunicle.
And Aaron shall have it upon him when he ministereth, that the sound
may be heard when he goeth into the holy place before the LORD and when
he cometh out, that he die not. And thou shalt make a plate of pure
gold, and grave thereon (as signets are graven) The holiness of the
LORD, and put it on a lace of Iacincth and tie it unto the mitre, upon
the forefront of it, that it be upon Aaron's forehead: that Aaron bear
the sin of the holy things which the children of Israel have hallowed
in all their holy gifts. And it shall be always upon Aaron's forehead,
that they may be accepted before the LORD. And thou shalt make an alb
of byss, and thou shalt make a mitre of byss and a girdle of needle
work. And thou shalt make for Aaron's sons also coats, girdles and
bonnets honourable and glorious, and thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy
brother and on his sons with him and shalt anoint them and fill their
hands and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me. And thou
shalt make them linen breeches to cover their privates: {privities}
from the loins unto the thighs shall they reach. And they shall be upon
Aaron and his sons, when they go into the tabernacle of witness, or
when they go unto the altar to minister in holiness, that they bear no
sin and so die. And it shall be a law for ever unto Aaron and his seed
after him.
