'And these [are] the garments which they make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and an upper robe, and an embroidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle; yea, they have made holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and for his sons, for his being priest to Me.

six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the remaining six on the second stone, according to their births;

'And thou hast set the two stones on the shoulders of the ephod — stones of memorial to the sons of Israel — and Aaron hath borne their names before Jehovah, on his two shoulders, for a memorial.
13 Thlung loe sui hoi sak ih tabu thungah suem ah;
'And thou hast made embroidered things of gold,

'And thou hast made a breastplate of judgment, work of a designer; according to the work of the ephod thou dost make it; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen thou dost make it;

21 Israel acaeng hathlai hnetto oh moe, bantuek nuiah tarik ih ca baktih toengah, to thlung pongah, Israel acaeng hathlai hnetto ahmin to tarik ah; thlung maeto pongah Israel acaeng ahmin maeto tarik ah.
and the stones are according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names, openings of a signet, each by his name are they for the twelve tribes.
22 Saoek padaphaih ranuih aqai ih takii hnetto pongah, kaciim sui hoi pakhui ih qui hnetto suem ah.
'And thou hast made on the breastplate wreathed chains, work of thick bands, of pure gold;
23 Saoek padaphaih nuiah sui hoiah kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto sah ah loe, padaphaih aqai ah pathlet hmaek ah.
and thou hast made on the breastplate two rings of gold, and hast put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate;
24 Saoek padaphaih aqai hnetto pongah kaom sui hoi sak ih kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto thungah, sui hoi sak ih qui hnetto pathlet hmaek ah.
and thou hast put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate;
25 Sui hoi sak ih qui hnetto loe thlung pahunghaih tabu hnetto pongah pathlet ah loe, palaeng ah avak ih kahni hmaa ah suem ah.
and the two ends of the two thick bands thou dost put on the two embroidered things, and thou hast put [them] on the shoulders of the ephod over-against its face.
26 Sui hoiah kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto sah ah loe, kahni thungah kaom saoek padaphaih tlim ih, aqai hnetto nuiah suem ah.
'And thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast set them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its border, which [is] over-against the ephod within;
27 Sui hoiah kalah kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto sah let ah loe, kahni hmaa bang ih atlim, kahoih ah sak ih kahni zaenghaih kazii ranuih, kahni aqai banqoi bangtang bangah suem hmaek ah.
and thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast put them on the two shoulders of the ephod, beneath, over-against its front, over-against its joining, above the girdle of the ephod,
28 Saoek padaphaih nui ih sui hoi sak ih kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto loe, kahni nui ih sui hoi sak ih kangbuet luet akhaw hnetto hoi nawnto pathlet ah loe, saoek padaphaih to kahni hoi amhoe han ai ah, kahoih ah sak ih kahni zaenghaih kazii ranui ah, rong kamiing qui hoiah kom ah.
and they bind the breastplate by its rings unto the rings of the ephod with a ribbon of blue, to be above the girdle of the ephod, and the breastplate is not loosed from the ephod.
29 Aaron hmuenciim thung akun kruek, Angraeng hmaa ah panoek poe hanah, lokcaekhaih saoek padaphaih kahni nuiah kaom, Israel caanawk ih ahmin to, angmah ih saoek nuiah avak poe tih.
'And Aaron hath borne the names of the sons of Israel in the breastplate of judgment, on his heart, in his going in unto the sanctuary, for a memorial before Jehovah continually.
30 Urim hoi Thummin doeh avak ih saoek padaphaih kahni thungah suem ah; Aaron mah Angraeng hmaa ah akun kruek, Urim hoi Thummin to Aaron ih palung thuem ah oh poe han oh; Aaron mah Israel kaminawk nuiah sak ih lok takroekhaih to angmah ih palung thuem ah Angraeng hmaa ah avak poe tih.
'And thou hast put unto the breastplate of judgment the Lights and the Perfections, and they have been on the heart of Aaron, in his going in before Jehovah, and Aaron hath borne the judgment of the sons of Israel on his heart before Jehovah continually.
31 Palaeng ah avak ih kahni to rong kamiing tlangqui hoiah sah ah.
'And thou hast made the upper robe of the ephod completely of blue,
32 A um ah lu suekhaih akhaw to suem ah; a um ah suek ih akhaw to angsih han ai ah, a taeng boih ban hoiah sak ih kahni hoiah abu ah.
and the opening for its head hath been in its midst, a border is to its opening round about, work of a weaver, as the opening of a habergeon there is to it; it is not rent.
33 Kahni tlim ih atom ah tlangqui kamiing, tlangqui kamling hup, tlangqui kathim hoiah pomegranat thingthai krang to soi ah loe, salakah sui hoi sak ih dar krang to soi ah.
'And thou hast made on its hem pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, on its hem round about, and bells of gold in their midst round about;
34 Sui hoi sak ih dar maeto pacoengah, pomegranate thingthai krang maeto, kahni atom ranuih, a taeng boih ah soi ah.
a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold and a pomegranate [are] on the hems of the upper robe round about.
35 Aaron mah toksak hanah, Angraeng hmaa ah, hmuenciim thungah akun naah, dueh ai ah, tacawt hanah, to kahni to angkhuk moe, anih ih lok to thaih han angaih.
'And it hath been on Aaron to minister in, and its sound hath been heard in his coming in unto the sanctuary before Jehovah, and in his going out, and he doth not die.
36 Kaciim sui sabae maeto sah ah loe, bantuek nuiah tarik ih baktih toengah, to sabae nuiah, ANGRAENG HAN CIIMCAIHAIH, tiah tarik ah.
'And thou hast made a flower of pure gold, and hast opened on it — openings of a signet — 'Holy to Jehovah;'
37 Lumuek hmaa ah kamiing tlangqui hoiah kom ah.
and thou hast put it on a blue ribbon, and it hath been on the mitre — over-against the front of the mitre it is;
38 To hmuen loe Aaron ih lupataeh ah om ueloe, Israelnawk mah paek ih kaciim tangqumnawk, kaciim hmuennawk nuiah kaom, zaehaih to anih mah phaw tih; Angraeng mah to hmuennawk talawk thai hanah, to hmuen to Aaron ih lupataeh ah oh poe han angaih.
and it hath been on the forehead of Aaron, and Aaron hath borne the iniquity of the holy things which the sons of Israel do hallow, even all their holy gifts; and it hath been on his forehead continually for a pleasing thing for them before Jehovah.
39 Laihaw loe puu ngan hoiah sah ah loe, lumuek doeh puu ngan hoiah sah paeh; kaeng ah angzaeng ih kazii loe kaengkaeh sah kop kami khaeah sahsak ah.
'And thou hast embroidered the coat of linen, and hast made a mitre of linen, and a girdle thou dost make — work of an embroiderer.
40 Aaron capanawk lensawkhaih amtueng thai hanah, laihaw, lumuek hoi kaeng zaenghaih kazii to sah paeh.
'And for the sons of Aaron thou dost make coats, and thou hast made for them girdles, yea, bonnets thou dost make for them, for honour and for beauty;
41 To tiah nam ya Aaron hoi a caanawk to khukbuen angkhuksak moe, ka tok a sak o thai hanah, situi hoiah bawh ah, nihcae to caksak ah loe, ciimcaisak ah.
and thou hast clothed Aaron thy brother with them, and his sons with him, and hast anointed them, and hast consecrated their hand, and hast sanctified them, and they have been priests to Me.
42 Nihcae ih takpum to khuk hanah, kaeng hoi phaih khoek to kapha, puu ngan kahni to sah pae ah.
'And make thou for them linen trousers to cover the naked flesh: they are from the loins even unto the thighs;
43 Aaron hoi a caanawk mah amkhuenghaih kahni im, to tih ai boeh loe hmuenciim ah toksak o hanah hmaicam taengah a caeh o naah, zaehaih mah phak thuih moe, a duek o han ai ah, to khukbuennawk to angkhuk o han angaih; hae loe Aaron hoi a caanawk hanah dungzan ah paek ih daan ah om tih.
and they have been on Aaron and on his sons, in their going in unto the tent of meeting, or in their drawing nigh unto the altar to minister in the sanctuary, and they do not bear iniquity nor have they died; a statute age-during to him, and to his seed after him.
