Exodus 28:22-29

22“For the breastplate make chains out of pure gold, twisted like ropes.

23Make two gold rings for the breastplate. Attach them to the two ⌞top⌟ corners of the breastplate.

24Then fasten the two gold ropes to the rings at the ⌞top⌟ corners of the breastplate.

25Fasten the other ends of the ropes to the two settings on the shoulder straps of the ephod ⌞so that the breastplate hangs⌟ in front of it.

26Make two gold rings, and fasten them to the other two corners of the breastplate on the inside edge next to the ephod.

27Make two ⌞more⌟ gold rings, and fasten them to the bottom of the shoulder straps on the front of the ephod. This will be close to the seam just above the belt of the ephod.

28Then the breastplate should be fastened by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a violet cord. This will attach it just above the belt of the ephod and will hold the breastplate in place.

29“Whenever Aaron goes into the holy place, he will be carrying the names of the sons of Israel over his heart as a constant reminder in the Lord’s presence. He must do this by wearing the breastplate for decision-making.
