Revised Version 1895

Exodus 39:6-14

6And they wrought the onyx stones, enclosed in ouches of gold, graven with the engravings of a signet, according to the names of the children of Israel.

7And he put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses.

8And he made the breastplate, the work of the cunning workman, like the work of the ephod; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

9It was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span was the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being double.

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 ouches of gold in their settings.

14And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, every one according to his name, for the twelve tribes.
