Exodus (The Second Book of Moses Called )

And of the blue and purple and scarlet they made garments of service, for service in the sanctuary, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus.

And they beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it [into] wires, to work it artistically into the blue, and into the purple, and into the scarlet, and into the byssus.

They made shoulder-pieces for it, joining it: at its two ends was it joined together.

And the girdle of his ephod, which was on it, was of the same, according to its work, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And they wrought the onyx stones mounted in enclosures of gold, engraved with the engravings of a seal, according to the names of the sons of Israel.

And he put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, [as] stones of memorial for the children of Israel; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he made the breastplate of artistic work, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus.

It was square; double did they make the breastplate, a span the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, doubled.

And they set in it four rows of stones: [one] row, a sardoin, a topaz, and an emerald -- the first row;

and the second row, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond;

and the third row, an opal, an agate, and an amethyst;

and the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper; mounted in enclosures of gold in their settings.

And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, engraved as a seal, every one according to his name, for the twelve tribes.

And they made on the breastplate chains of laced work of wreathen work, of pure gold.

And they made two settings of gold, and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.

And they put the two wreathen [cords] of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate;

and the two ends of the two wreathen [cords] they fastened to the two settings, and put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, on the front thereof.

And they made two rings of gold, and put [them] on the two ends of the breastplate, on the border thereof, which faceth the ephod inwards.

And they made two rings of gold, and put them upon the two shoulder-pieces of the ephod underneath, to the front thereof, just by the coupling thereof, above the girdle of the ephod.

And they bound the breastplate with its rings to the rings of the ephod with lace of blue, that it might be above the girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he made the cloak of the ephod of woven work, all of blue;

and the opening of the cloak in its middle, as the opening of a coat of mail; a binding was round about the opening, that it should not rend.

And they made on the skirts of the cloak pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet, twined.

And they made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates, in the skirts of the cloak, round about, between the pomegranates:

a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, in the skirts of the cloak round about, for service; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And they made the vests of byssus of woven work, for Aaron, and for his sons;
