Exodus 28:9-21
9And thou shalt takeH3947 twoH8147 onyxH7718 stonesH68, and engrave on them the namesH8034 of the children of IsraelH3478:
10sixH8337 of their namesH8034 on the oneH259 stoneH68, and the sixH8337 namesH8034 of the rest on the other stoneH68, according to their birth.
11According to the workH4639 of an engraverH2796 in stoneH68, as the engravingsH6603 of a sealH2368, shalt thou engrave the twoH8147 stonesH68 with the namesH8034 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; surrounded by enclosures of goldH2091 shalt thou makeH6213 them.
12And thou shalt putH7760 the twoH8147 stonesH68 upon the shoulder-pieces of the ephodH646 [as] stonesH68 of memorialH2146 for the children of IsraelH3478; and AaronH175 shall bearH5375 their namesH8034 before Jehovah upon his twoH8147 shouldersH3802 for a memorialH2146.
13And thou shalt makeH6213 enclosures of goldH2091;
14and twoH8147 chainsH8333 of pureH2889 goldH2091; of laced workH4639 shalt thou makeH5414 them, of wreathen workH4639, and fasten the wreathen chainsH8333 to the enclosures.
15And thou shalt makeH6213 the breastplate of judgmentH4941 of artistic workH4639, like the workH4639 of the ephodH646 thou shalt makeH6213 it; of goldH2091, blueH8504, and purpleH713, and scarletH8144, and twined byssus shalt thou makeH6213 it.
16SquareH7251 shall it beH1961, doubledH3717; a spanH2239 the lengthH753 thereof, and a spanH2239 the breadthH7341 thereof.
17And thou shalt set in it settings of stonesH68 — fourH702 rowsH2905 of stonesH68: [oneH259] rowH2905, a sardoin, a topazH6357, and an emerald — the first rowH2905;
18and the secondH8145 rowH2905, a carbuncle, a sapphireH5601, and a diamond;
19and the thirdH7992 rowH2905, an opal, an agateH7618, and an amethystH306;
20and the fourthH7243 rowH2905, a chrysolite, and an onyxH7718, and a jasperH3471; enclosed in goldH2091 shall they beH1961 in their settings.
21And the stonesH68 shall beH1961 according to the namesH8034 of the children of IsraelH3478, twelve, according to their namesH8034, engraved as a sealH2368: every oneH376 according to his nameH8034 shall they beH1961 for the twelve tribesH7626.
