Exodus 28:31-39

31“You are to make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue yarn.

32There should be an opening at its top in the center of it. Around the opening, there should be a woven collar with an opening like that of body armor so that it does not tear.

33Make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn on its lower hem and all around it. Put gold bells between them all the way around,

34so that gold bells and pomegranates alternate around the lower hem of the robe.

35The robe will be worn by Aaron whenever he ministers, and its sound will be heard when he enters the sanctuary before the Lord and when he exits, so that he does not die.

36“You are to make a pure gold medallion and engrave it, like the engraving of a seal: Holy to the Lord.

37Fasten it to a cord of blue yarn so it can be placed on the turban; the medallion is to be on the front of the turban.

38It will be on Aaron’s forehead so that Aaron may bear the guilt connected with the holy offerings that the Israelites consecrate as all their holy gifts. It is always to be on his forehead, so that they may find acceptance with the Lord.

39“You are to weave the tunic from fine linen, make a turban of fine linen, and make an embroidered sash.
