Exodus 39

1 They made woven clothing from blue, purple, and crimson thread for serving in the sanctuary. They also made holy clothing garments for Aaron, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made clothes of service, to do service in the holy [place], and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.

2 They made the ephod of finely-woven linen embroidered with gold, and with blue, purple, and crimson thread.

And he made the ephod [of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

3 They hammered out thin sheets of gold and cut threads from them to weave in with the blue, purple, and scarlet thread, together with fine linen, all skillfully worked.

And they beat the gold into thin plates, and cut [it into] wires, to work [it] in the blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen, [with] curious work.

4 Two shoulder pieces were attached to the front and back pieces.

They made shoulder-pieces for it, to couple [it] together: by the two edges was it coupled together.

5 The waistband of the ephod was one piece made in the same way, using gold thread, with blue, purple, and crimson thread, and with finely-woven linen, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And the curious girdle of his ephod, that [was] upon it, [was] of the same, according to the work thereof; [of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; as the LORD commanded Moses.

6 They placed the onyx stones in ornamental gold settings, engraved with the names of the Israelite tribes in the same way a jeweler engraves a personal seal.

And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold, graven as signets are graven, with the names of the children of Israel.

7 They attached both stones to the shoulder pieces of the ephod as reminders for the Israelite tribes, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod, [that they should be] stones for a memorial to the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses.

8 They also made a breastpiece for decisions in the same skilful way as the ephod, to be used in determining the Lord's will. They made it using gold thread, with blue, purple, and crimson thread, and with finely-woven linen.

And he made the breast-plate [of] curious work, like the work of the ephod; [of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

9 It was square when folded, measuring around nine inches in length and width.

It was foursquare; they made the breast-plate double: a span [was] the length of it, and a span the breadth of it, [being] doubled.

10 They attached an arrangement of precious stones in four rows as follows. In the first row carnelian, peridot, and emerald.

And they set in it four rows of stones: [the first] row [was] a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this [was] the first row.

11 In the second row turquoise, lapis lazuli, and sardonyx.

And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.

12 In the third row jacinth, agate, and amethyst.

And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.

13 In the fourth row topaz, beryl, and jasper. They were all placed in ornamental gold settings.

And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper: [they were] inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.

14 Each of the twelve stones were engraved like a personal seal with the name of one of the twelve Israelites tribes and represented them.

And the stones [were] according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, [like] the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according to the twelve tribes.

15 They made cords of braided chains from pure gold to attach the breastpiece.

And they made upon the breast-plate chains at the ends, [of] wreathed work [of] pure gold.

16 They made two gold settings and two gold rings and fastened the rings to the two top corners of the breastpiece.

And they made two ouches [of] gold, and two gold rings, and put the two rings in the two ends of the breast-plate.

17 They attached the two gold chains to the two gold rings on the corners of the breastpiece,

And they put the two wreathed chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breast-plate.

18 and then fastened the opposite ends of the two chains to the ornamental gold settings on the shoulder pieces of the front side of the ephod.

And the two ends of the two wreathed chains they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, before it.

19 They made two more gold rings and attached them to the two lower corners of the breastpiece, on the inside edge next to the ephod.

And they made two rings of gold, and put [them] on the two ends of the breast-plate, upon the border of it, which [was] on the side of the ephod inward.

20 They made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the front side of the ephod, near where it joins its woven waistband.

And they made two [other] golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, towards the forepart of it, over against the [other] coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod:

21 They tied the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue thread, so that the breastpiece wouldn't come loose from the ephod, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And they bound the breast-plate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breast-plate might not be loosed from the ephod; as the LORD commanded Moses.

22 They made the robe that goes with the ephod exclusively from woven blue cloth,

And he made the robe of the ephod [of] woven work, all [of] blue.

23 with an opening in the middle at the top. They stitched a woven collar around the opening to strengthen it so it wouldn't tear.

And [there was] a hole in the midst of the robe, as the hole of an habergeon, [with] a band around the hole, that it should not rend.

24 They made pomegranates using blue, purple, and crimson thread and finely-woven linen and attached them all the way around its hem.

And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates [of] blue, and purple, and scarlet, [and] twined [linen].

25 They made pure gold bells and attached them between the pomegranates all the way around its hem,

And they made bells [of] pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, around between the pomegranates;

26 having the bells and the pomegranates alternate. The robe was to be used for priestly service, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, around the hem of the robe to minister [in]; as the LORD commanded Moses.

27 They made tunics with finely-spun linen made by a weaver for Aaron and his sons.

And they made coats [of] fine linen, [of] woven work, for Aaron and for his sons,

28 They also made turbans, headdresses, and headbands of fine linen, and finely-woven linen undershorts,

And a miter [of] fine linen, and goodly bonnets [of] fine linen, and linen breeches [of] fine twined linen,

29 as well as sashes of finely-woven linen embroidered with blue, purple, and crimson thread, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And a girdle [of] fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, [of] needle-work; as the LORD commanded Moses.

30 They made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold and wrote on it, engraved like a seal, “Holy to the Lord.”

And they made the plate of the holy crown [of] pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing, [like to] the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.

31 They tied a blue cord to it to attach it to the front of the turban, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

And they tied to it a lace of blue, to fasten [it] on high upon the miter; as the LORD commanded Moses.

32 So all the work for the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, was finished. The Israelites did everything as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.

33 Then they presented the Tabernacle to Moses: the tent with all its furniture, its clips, its frames, its crossbars, and its posts and stands;

And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent, and all its furniture, its buttons, its boards, its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets,

34 the covering of tanned ram skins, the covering of fine leather, and the veil;

And the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the covering of badgers' skins, and the vail of the covering,

35 the Ark of the Testimony with its poles and the atonement cover;

The ark of the testimony, and its staffs, and the mercy-seat,

36 the table with all its equipment and the Bread of the Presence;

The table, [and] all its vessels, and the show-bread,

37 the pure gold lampstand with its lamps placed in a row, and all its equipment, as well as the olive oil for the lamps;

The pure candlestick, [with] its lamps, [even with] the lamps to be set in order, and all its vessels, and the oil for light,

38 the gold altar, the anointing oil, the aromatic incense, and the screen for the tent's entrance;

And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle-door,

39 the bronze altar with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its utensils; the basin plus its stand;

The brazen altar, and its grate of brass, its staffs, and all its vessels, the laver and its foot,

40 the curtains of the courtyard and its posts and stands; the curtain for the courtyard entrance, its ropes and tent pegs, and all the equipment for the services of Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting;

The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets, and the hanging for the court-gate, its cords, and its pins, and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation,

41 and the woven garments for serving in the sanctuary, the holy clothes for Aaron the priest and for his sons to serve as priests.

The clothes of service to do service in the holy [place], and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his sons' garments, to minister in the priest's office.

42 The Israelites did all the work that the Lord had ordered Moses to do.

According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel made all the work.

43 Moses inspected all the work and made sure they had done it as the Lord had ordered. Then Moses blessed them.

And Moses looked upon all the work, and behold, they had done it as the LORD had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.
