Exodus 39:8-21
8And he madeH6213 the breastplate, the workH4639 of the skilful workman, like the workH4639 of the ephodH646; of goldH2091, of blueH8504, and purpleH713, and scarletH8144, and fineH8336 twined linenH8336. 9It wasH1961 foursquare; they madeH6213 the breastplate doubleH3717: a spanH2239 wasH1961 the lengthH753 thereof, and a spanH2239 the breadthH7341 thereof, being doubleH3717. 10And they set in it fourH702 rowsH2905 of stonesH68. A rowH2905 of sardius, topazH6357, and carbuncle was the first rowH2905; 11and the secondH8145 rowH2905, an emerald, a sapphireH5601, and a diamond; 12and the thirdH7992 rowH2905, a jacinthH3958, an agateH7618, and an amethystH306; 13and the fourthH7243 rowH2905, a beryl, an onyxH7718, and a jasperH3471: they were inclosed in inclosings of goldH2091 in their settings. 14And the stonesH68 were according to the namesH8034 of the children of IsraelH3478, twelve, according to their namesH8034; like the engravingsH6603 of a signet, every oneH376 according to his nameH8034, for the twelve tribesH7626. 15And they madeH6213 upon the breastplate chainsH8333 like cordsH5688, of wreathen workH4639 of pureH2889 goldH2091. 16And they madeH6213 twoH8147 settings of goldH2091, and twoH8147 goldH2091 ringsH2885, and putH5414 the twoH8147 ringsH2885 on the twoH8147 endsH7098 of the breastplate. 17And they putH5414 the twoH8147 wreathen chains of goldH2091 in the twoH8147 ringsH2885 at the endsH7098 of the breastplate. 18And the other twoH8147 endsH7098 of the twoH8147 wreathen chains they putH5414 on the twoH8147 settings, and putH5414 them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephodH646, in the forepart thereof. 19And they madeH6213 twoH8147 ringsH2885 of goldH2091, and putH7760 them upon the twoH8147 endsH7098 of the breastplate, upon the edgeH8193 thereof, which was toward the sideH5676 of the ephodH646 inward. 20And they madeH6213 twoH8147 ringsH2885 of goldH2091, and putH5414 them on the twoH8147 shoulder-pieces of the ephodH646 underneath, in the forepart thereof, closeH5980 by the coupling thereof, above the skilfully woven band of the ephodH646. 21And they did bind the breastplate by the ringsH2885 thereof unto the ringsH2885 of the ephodH646 with a lace of blueH8504, that it might beH1961 upon the skilfully woven band of the ephodH646, and that the breastplate might not beH1961 loosed from the ephodH646; as Jehovah commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
