Exodus 39

1 Truly, from hyacinth and purple, vermillion and fine linen, he made the vestments with which Aaron was clothed when he ministered in the holy places, just as the Lord instructed Moses.

And of the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, they made colored garments, to minister in the holy place; and they make the holy garments which [are] for Aaron, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

2 And so he made an ephod of gold, hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen,

And he makes the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen,

3 wrought with embroidery. And he cut thin strips of gold and drew them into threads, so that they could be twisted into the weave of the first colors.

and they expand the plates of gold, and have cut off wires to work in the midst of the blue, and in the midst of the purple, and in the midst of the scarlet, and in the midst of the linen—the work of a designer;

4 And he made two edges, coupled to one another at the top of both sides,

they have made shoulder-pieces for it, joining; it is joined at its two ends.

5 and a wide belt from the same colors, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

And the girdle of his ephod which [is] on it is of the same, according to its work, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

6 He also prepared two onyx stones, set and enclosed in gold, and engraved with the skill of a jeweler, with the names of the sons of Israel.

And they prepare the shoham stones, set [with] filigrees of gold, engraved with engravings of a signet—the names of the sons of Israel on [them];

7 And he set them in the sides of the ephod, as a memorial to the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

and he sets them on the shoulders of the ephod—stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

8 He also made a breastplate, wrought with embroidery, according to the work of the ephod, from gold, hyacinth, purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen:

And he makes the breastplate, the work of a designer, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen;

9 with four equal sides, doubled, of the measure of the palm of a hand.

it has been square; they have made the breastplate double, a span its length, and a span its breadth, doubled.

10 And he set four rows of gems in it. In the first row was a sardius stone, a topaz, an emerald;

And they fill four rows of stones in it: a row of a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle [is] the first row;

11 in the second was a garnet, a sapphire, and a jasper;

and the second row an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond;

12 in the third was a zircon, an agate, and an amethyst;

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

13 in the fourth was a chrysolite, an onyx, and a beryl, surrounded and enclosed in gold by their rows.

and the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper—set [with] filigrees of gold in their settings.

14 And these twelve stones were engraved with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, each one with a single name.

And the stones, according to the names of the sons of Israel, are twelve, according to their names, engravings of a signet, each according to his name, for the twelve tribes.

15 They also made, in the breastplate, little chains linked to one another, from the purest gold,

And they make wreathed chains on the breastplate, [the] work of thick bands of pure gold;

16 and two hooks, and the same number of gold rings. Moreover, they set the rings at both sides of the breastplate,

and they make two filigrees of gold, and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate,

17 from which two golden chains would hang, which they connected with the hooks that projected from the corners of the ephod.

and they put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings on the ends of the breastplate;

18 These were both in front and in back so that they met one another, and so that the ephod and the breastplate were woven together,

and they have put the two ends of the two thick bands on the two filigrees, and they put them on the shoulders of the ephod, toward the front of its face.

19 being fastened to the wide belt and strongly coupled with rings, to which a hyacinth band was joined, lest they should shake loose and be moved away from one another, just as the Lord instructed Moses.

And they make two rings of gold, and set [them] on the two ends of the breastplate, on its border, which [is] on the side of the ephod within;

20 They also made the tunic of the ephod entirely from hyacinth,

and they make two rings of gold, and put them on the two shoulders of the ephod below, in front of its front, close by its joining, above the girdle of the ephod;

21 with the head in the upper part at the middle, and a woven edge all around the head.

and they bind the breastplate by its rings to 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 off the ephod, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

22 Then, at the feet below, they also made pomegranates from hyacinth, purple, vermillion, and fine twisted linen,

And he makes the upper robe of the ephod, the work of a weaver, completely of blue;

23 and little bells from the purest gold, which they set between the pomegranates at the very bottom of the tunic all around.

and the opening of the upper robe [is] in its midst, as the opening of a [linen] habergeon, [with] a border for its opening all around; it is not torn;

24 So then, the high priest approached, adorned with gold bell and pomegranate, when he performed his ministry, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

and they make on the hems of the upper robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, twined.

25 They also made fine linen tunics with woven work, for Aaron and his sons,

And they make bells of pure gold, and put the bells in the midst of the pomegranates, on the hems of the upper robe, all around, in the midst of the pomegranates;

26 and headdresses with their little crowns of fine linen,

a bell and a pomegranate [and] a bell and a pomegranate [are] on the hems of the upper robe all around, to minister in, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

27 and also linen undergarments of fine linen.

And they make the coats of linen, the work of a weaver, for Aaron and for his sons,

28 Truly, they also made a wide band of fine twisted linen, hyacinth, purple, as well as vermillion, twice-dyed, with skillful embroidery, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

and the turban of linen, and the beautiful caps of linen, and the linen trousers, of twined linen,

29 They also made the plate of sacred veneration from the purest gold, and they wrote on it, with the skill of a jeweler: “Holy to the Lord.”

and the girdle of twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, the work of an embroiderer, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

30 And they fastened it to the headdress with a hyacinth band, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

And they make the flower of the holy crown of pure gold, and write a writing on it, engravings of a signet: “Holy to YHWH”;

31 And so all the work of the tabernacle and of the covering of the testimony was completed. And the sons of Israel did all that the Lord had instructed Moses.

and they put a ribbon of blue on it, to put [it] on the turban above, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

32 And they offered the tabernacle, and the covering, and all of the articles: the rings, the panels, the bars, the columns and bases,

And all the service of the Dwelling Place of the Tent of Meeting is completed; and the sons of Israel do according to all that YHWH has commanded Moses; so they have done.

33 the cover of the skins of rams, dyed red, and the other cover of violet skins,

And they bring in the Dwelling Place to Moses, the tent, and all its vessels, its hooks, its boards, its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets;

34 the veil, the ark, the bars, the propitiatory,

and the covering of rams’ skins, which are made red, and the covering of tachashim skins, and the veil of the covering;

35 the table, with its vessels and the bread of the presence,

the Ark of the Testimony and its poles, and the propitiatory covering;

36 the lampstand, the lamps, and their utensils with the oil,

the table, all its vessels, and the Bread of the Presentation;

37 the altar of gold, and the ointment, and the incense of aromatics,

the pure lampstand, its lamps, the lamps of arrangement, and all its vessels, and the oil for the light.

38 and the tent at the entrance of the tabernacle,

And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the spice-incense, and the covering of the opening of the tent;

39 the altar of brass, the grating, the bars, and all of its vessels, the washtub with its base, the hangings of the atrium, and the columns with their bases,

the bronze altar and the bronze grate which it has, its poles, and all its vessels, the laver and its base;

40 the hanging at the entrance of the atrium, and their little cords and pegs. Nothing was lacking of the articles that were commanded to be made for the ministry of the tabernacle and for the covering of the covenant.

the hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets; and the covering for the gate of the court, its cords, and its pins; and all the vessels of the service of the Dwelling Place, for the Tent of Meeting;

41 Likewise, the vestments, which the priests, namely, Aaron and his sons, make use of use in the Sanctuary,

the colored clothes to minister in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to act as priest in.

42 the sons of Israel offered, just as the Lord had instructed.

According to all that YHWH has commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel have done all the service;

43 After this, when Moses saw that everything was completed, he blessed them.

and Moses sees all the work, and behold, they have done it as YHWH has commanded; so they have done. And Moses blesses them.
