Exodus 39:2-26
21He madeH6213 the ephodH646 of goldH2091 and of violetH8504, purpleH713, and scarletH8144 material, and fineH8336 twistedH7806 linenH8336. 3Then they hammeredH7554 outH7554 goldH2091 sheetsH6341 and cutH7112 them into threadsH6616 2to be wovenH6213 in with the violetH8504, the purpleH713, and the scarletH8144 material, and the fineH8336 linenH8336, the workH4639 of a skilledH2803 embroidererH2803. 4They madeH6213 attachingH2266 shoulderH3802 pieces for 3the ephod; it was attachedH2266 at its twoH8147 upper endsH7117. 5And the skillfullyH2805 wovenH2805 bandH2805 of its overlayH642 whichH834 was on it was like its workmanshipH4639, 4of the sameH4480 material: of goldH2091 and of violetH8504, purpleH713, and scarletH8144 material, and fineH8336 twistedH7806 linenH8336, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
65They also madeH6213 the onyxH7718 stonesH68, setH5437 in goldH2091 filigreeH4865 settings; they were engravedH6605 like the engravingsH6603 of a signetH2368, accordingH5921 to the namesH8034 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 7And 6he placedH7760 them on the shoulderH3802 pieces of the ephodH646 as memorialH2146 stonesH68 for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
8And 7he madeH6213 the breastpieceH2833, the workH4639 of a skilledH2803 embroidererH2803, like the workmanshipH4639 of the ephodH646: of goldH2091 and of violetH8504, purpleH713, and scarletH8144 material and fineH8336 twistedH7806 linenH8336. 9It was squareH7251; they madeH6213 the breastpieceH2833 foldedH3717 doubleH3717, a 8spanH2239 9longH753 and a spanH2239 10wideH7341 when foldedH3717 doubleH3717. 10And they 11mountedH4390 fourH702 rowsH2905 of stonesH68 on it. The firstH259 rowH2905 was a rowH2905 of rubyH124, topazH6357, and emeraldH1304; 11and the secondH8145 rowH2905, a turquoiseH5306, a sapphireH5601, and a diamondH3095; 12and the thirdH7992 rowH2905, a jacinthH3958, an agateH7618, and an amethystH306; 13and the fourthH7243 rowH2905, a berylH8658, an onyxH7718, and a jasperH3471. They were setH5437 in goldH2091 filigreeH4865 settings when they were 12mountedH4396. 14The stonesH68 correspondedH5921 to the namesH8034 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; they were twelveH8147H6240, correspondingH5921 to their namesH8034, engraved with the engravingsH6603 of a signetH2368, eachH376 with its nameH8034 for the twelveH8147H6240 tribesH7626. 15And they madeH6213 for the breastpieceH2833 chainsH8333 like cordsH5688, workH4639 of twistedH1383 cordsH5688 of pureH2889 goldH2091. 16They madeH6213 twoH8147 goldH2091 filigreeH4865 settings and twoH8147 goldH2091 ringsH2885, and putH5414 the twoH8147 ringsH2885 on the twoH8147 endsH7098 of the breastpieceH2833. 17Then they putH5414 the twoH8147 goldH2091 cordsH5688 in the twoH8147 ringsH2885 at the endsH7098 of the breastpieceH2833. 18And they putH5414 the other twoH8147 endsH7098 of the twoH8147 cordsH5688 on the twoH8147 filigreeH4865 settings, and putH5414 them on the shoulderH3802 pieces of the ephodH646 at the frontH6440 of it. 19They madeH6213 twoH8147 goldH2091 ringsH2885 and placedH7760 them on the twoH8147 endsH7098 of the breastpieceH2833, on its innerH1004 edgeH8193 whichH834 was nextH413H5676 to the ephodH646. 20Furthermore, they madeH6213 twoH8147 goldH2091 ringsH2885 and placedH5414 them on the bottomH4295 of the twoH8147 shoulderH3802 pieces of the ephodH646, on the frontH6440 of it, closeH5980 to the placeH4225 whereH4225 it joinedH4225, aboveH4480H4605 the wovenH2805 bandH2805 of the ephodH646. 21And they boundH7405 the breastpieceH2833 by its ringsH2885 to the ringsH2885 of the ephodH646 with a violetH8504 cordH6616, so that it would be on the wovenH2805 bandH2805 of the ephodH646, and that the breastpieceH2833 would not comeH2118 looseH2118 from the ephodH646, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
2213Then he madeH6213 the robeH4598 of the ephodH646 of wovenH707 workH4639, allH3632 of violetH8504; 2314and the openingH6310 of the robeH4598 was at the top in the centerH8432, as the openingH6310 of a coatH8473 ofH8473 mailH8473, with a bindingH8193 allH5439 aroundH5439 its openingH6310, so that it would not be tornH7167. 24And they madeH6213 pomegranatesH7416 of violetH8504, purpleH713, and scarletH8144 material and twistedH7806 linen on the hemH7757 of the robeH4598. 25They also madeH6213 bellsH6472 of pureH2889 goldH2091, and putH5414 the bellsH6472 betweenH8432 the pomegranatesH7416 allH5439 aroundH5439 on the hemH7757 of the 15robeH4598, 2616alternating a bellH6472 and a pomegranateH7416 allH5439 aroundH5439 on the hemH7757 of the robeH4598 for the serviceH8334, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
