9. with four equal sides, doubled, of the measure of the palm of a hand.
10. And he set four rows of gems in it. In the first row was a sardius stone, a topaz, an emerald;
11. in the second was a garnet, a sapphire, and a jasper;
12. in the third was a zircon, an agate, and an amethyst;
13. in the fourth was a chrysolite, an onyx, and a beryl, surrounded and enclosed in gold by their rows.
14. And these twelve stones were engraved with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, each one with a single name.
15. They also made, in the breastplate, little chains linked to one another, from the purest gold,
16. and two hooks, and the same number of gold rings. Moreover, they set the rings at both sides of the breastplate,
17. from which two golden chains would hang, which they connected with the hooks that projected from the corners of the ephod.

19. being fastened to the wide belt and strongly coupled with rings, to which a hyacinth band was joined, lest they should shake loose and be moved away from one another, just as the Lord instructed Moses.
20. They also made the tunic of the ephod entirely from hyacinth,
21. with the head in the upper part at the middle, and a woven edge all around the head.
22. Then, at the feet below, they also made pomegranates from hyacinth, purple, vermillion, and fine twisted linen,
23. and little bells from the purest gold, which they set between the pomegranates at the very bottom of the tunic all around.
24. So then, the high priest approached, adorned with gold bell and pomegranate, when he performed his ministry, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
25. They also made fine linen tunics with woven work, for Aaron and his sons,
26. and headdresses with their little crowns of fine linen,
