Exodus 28:31-36 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

31. And you shall make the tunic for the ephod entirely of hyacinth,

32. and the head will be above its middle, with a hem woven around it, just as is usually made at the end parts of a garment, so that it may not be easily broken.

33. Yet truly, beneath it, at the base of the same tunic, all around, you shall make something like pomegranates, from hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, with little bells set in their midst.

34. So then, there shall be a little golden bell and a pomegranate, and again another golden bell and a pomegranate.

35. And Aaron will be vested with it during the office of his ministry, so that the sound may be heard when he enters and exits the Sanctuary, in the sight of the Lord, and so that he may not die.

36. And you shall make a plate of the purest gold, in which you shall engrave, with the skill of a sculptor, 'Holy to the Lord.'
