Exodus 28:4-11 American Standard Version (ASV)

4. And these are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of checker work, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

5. And they shall take the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the fine linen.

6. And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the skilful workman.

7. It shall have two shoulder-pieces joined to the two ends thereof, that it may be joined together.

8. And the skilfully woven band, which is upon it, wherewith to gird it on, shall be like the work thereof and of the same piece; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

9. And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:

10. six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the six that remain on the other stone, according to their birth.

11. With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones, according to the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to be inclosed in settings of gold.
