1. 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.
2. And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus.
3. 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.
4. They made shoulder-pieces for it, joining it: at its two ends was it joined together.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. And he made the breastplate of artistic work, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus.
9. It was square; double did they make the breastplate, a span the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, doubled.
10. And they set in it four rows of stones: one row, a sardoin, a topaz, and an emerald--the first row;

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