Exodus 39:8-14

8He made the breastpiece, in skilled work, in the style of the ephod, of gold, blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and fine twined linen.

9It was square. They made the breastpiece doubled, a span its length and a span its breadth when doubled.

10And they set in it four rows of stones. A row of sardius, topaz, and carbuncle was the first row;

11and the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond;

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

13and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold filigree.

14There were twelve stones with their names according to the names of the sons of Israel. They were like signets, each engraved with its name, for the twelve tribes.
