3. Tell all who are skilled, to whom I have given special abilities, to make clothing for Aaron for his dedication to serve me as a priest.
4. These are the articles of clothing that they should make: a chest pendant, a vest, a robe, a woven tunic, a turban, and a sash. When they make this holy clothing for your brother Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests,
5. they should use gold, blue, purple, and deep red yarns and fine linen.
6. They should make the vest of gold, of blue, purple, and deep red yarns and of fine twisted linen with embroidered designs.
7. The vest will have two shoulder pieces attached to its two edges so that they may be joined together.
8. The vest’s belt should be attached to it and made in the same way of gold, of blue, purple, and deep red yarns and fine twisted linen.
9. Take two gemstones and engrave on them the names of Israel’s sons,
10. six names on one stone and the other six names on the other stone, in the order of their birth.
11. Like a gem cutter who engraves official seals, you will engrave the two stones with the names of Israel’s sons. Mount them in gold settings.
12. Attach the two stones to the vest’s shoulder pieces as stones of reminder for the Israelites. Aaron will carry into the Lord’s presence their names on his two shoulders as a reminder.
13. Then make gold settings
14. along with two chains of pure gold, twisted like cords. Attach the corded chains to the gold settings.
15. Make an embroidered chest pendant used for making decisions. Make it in the style of the vest, using gold, blue and purple and deep red yarns, and fine twisted linen.
