17. Then they attached the two gold cords to the two gold rings on the corners of the breastpiece.
18. They attached the other ends of the two cords to the two filigree settings and, in this way, attached them to the ephod’s shoulder pieces in front.
19. They made two other gold rings and put them at the two other corners of the breastpiece on the edge that is next to the inner border of the ephod.
20. They made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the ephod’s two shoulder pieces on its front, close to its seam, above the ephod’s woven waistband.
21. Then they tied the breastpiece from its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece was above the ephod’s waistband and did not come loose from the ephod. They did just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22. They made the woven robe of the ephod entirely of blue yarn.
23. There was an opening in the center of the robe like that of body armor with a collar around the opening so that it would not tear.
24. They made pomegranates of finely spun blue, purple, and scarlet yarn on the lower hem of the robe.
25. They made bells of pure gold and attached the bells between the pomegranates, all around the hem of the robe between the pomegranates,
26. a bell and a pomegranate alternating all around the lower hem of the robe to be worn for ministry. They made it just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
