Exodus 39:20-32 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. They also put two gold rings on the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the ephod. These rings were near the fastener, just above the cloth belt.

21. Then they used a blue ribbon and tied the rings of the judgment pouch to the rings of the ephod. In this way the judgment pouch would rest close to the cloth belt and would be held tight against the ephod. They did everything just as the Lord commanded.

22. Then they made the robe for the ephod from blue cloth. It was woven by a skilled worker.

23. They made a hole in the center of the robe and sewed a piece of cloth around the edge of this hole. This cloth kept the hole from tearing.

24. Then they used fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn to make the cloth pomegranates. They hung these pomegranates around the bottom edge of the robe.

25. Then they made bells from pure gold. They hung these bells around the bottom edge of the robe between the pomegranates.

26. Around the bottom edge of the robe there were bells and pomegranates. There was a bell following each pomegranate. This robe was for the priest to wear when he served the Lord. It was made just as the Lord commanded Moses.

27. Skilled workers wove shirts for Aaron and his sons. These shirts were made from fine linen.

28. And the workers made a turban from fine linen. They also used fine linen to make cloth caps and underclothes.

29. Then they made the cloth belt from fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn. Designs were sewn into the cloth. These things were made as the Lord had commanded Moses.

30. Then they made a strip of pure gold for the holy crown. They carved these words into the gold like the writing on a seal: holy to the lord.

31. They fastened the gold strip to a blue ribbon. Then they tied the blue ribbon around the turban like the Lord had commanded Moses.

32. So all the work on the Holy Tent, that is, the Meeting Tent, was finished. The Israelites did everything just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
