Exodus 39:8-21

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.

15They made braided chains of pure gold cord for the breastpiece.

16They also fashioned two gold filigree settings and two gold rings and attached the two rings to its two corners.

17Then they attached the two gold cords to the two gold rings on the corners of the breastpiece.

18They attached the other ends of the two cords to the two filigree settings, and in this way they attached them to the ephod’s shoulder pieces in front.

19They made two other gold rings and put them at the two other corners of the breastpiece on the edge that is next to the inner border of the ephod.

20They made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the ephod’s two shoulder pieces on its front, close to its seam, above the ephod’s woven waistband.

21Then they tied the breastpiece from its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece was above the ephod’s waistband and did not come loose from the ephod. They did just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
