10. They set on it four rows of stones: a row with a ruby, a topaz, and a beryl – the first row;
11. and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;
12. and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13. and the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in gold filigree settings.
14. The stones were for the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, corresponding to the number of their names. Each name corresponding to one of the twelve tribes was like the engravings of a seal.
15. They made for the breastpiece braided chains like cords of pure gold,
16. and they made two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and they attached the two rings to the upper two ends of the breastpiece.
