Exodus 28:5-12

5They shall take 1the gold, the 2violet, the purple, the scarlet material, and the fine linen.

6“They shall also make 3the ephod of gold, of violet, purple, and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen, the work of the skilled embroiderer. 7It shall have two shoulder pieces joined to its two ends, so that it may be joined. 8The skillfully woven band of its overlay, which is on it, shall be like its workmanship, 4of the same material: of gold, of violet and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. 9And you shall take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel, 10six of their names on the one stone and the names of the remaining six on the 5other stone, according to their birth. 116As a jeweler engraves a signet, you shall engrave the two stones according to the names of the sons of Israel; you shall 7set them in filigree settings of gold. 12And you shall put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, and Aaron shall 8carry their names before the Lord on his two shoulders 9as a memorial.
