Exodus 39:6-14

6Then they mounted the onyx stones surrounded with gold filigree settings, engraved with the names of Israel’s sons as a gem cutter engraves a seal.

7He fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the Israelites, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

8He also made the embroidered breastpiece with the same workmanship as the ephod of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and of finely spun linen.

9They made the breastpiece square and folded double, nine inches long and nine inches wide.

10They mounted four rows of gemstones on it. The first row was a row of carnelian, topaz, and emerald;

11the second row, a turquoise, a lapis lazuli, and a diamond;

12the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

13and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were surrounded with gold filigree in their settings.

14The twelve stones corresponded to the names of Israel’s sons. Each stone was engraved like a seal with one of the names of the twelve tribes.
