1 Moreouer they made garments of ministration to minister in the Sanctuarie of blewe silke, and purple, and skarlet: they made also the holy garments for Aaron, as the Lord had comanded Moses.
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.
2 So he made the Ephod of gold, blewe silke, and purple, and skarlet, and fine twined linen.
And so he made an ephod of gold, hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen,
3 And they did beate the golde into thinne plates, and cut it into wiers, to worke it in ye blewe silke and in the purple, and in the skarlet, and in the fine linen, with broydred worke.

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

and a wide belt from the same colors, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
6 And they wrought two Onix stones closed in ouches of golde, and graued, as signets are grauen, with the names of the children of Israel,
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.
7 And put them on the shoulders of the Ephod, as stones for a remembrance of the children of Israel, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
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.
8 Also he made the brestplate of broydred worke like the worke of the Ephod: to wit, of gold, blewe silke, and purple, and skarlet, and fine twined linen.
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:
9 They made the brest plate double, and it was square, an hand breadth long, and an hand breadth broad: it was also double.
with four equal sides, doubled, of the measure of the palm of a hand.
10 And they filled it with foure rowes of stones. The order was thus, a Rubie, a Topaze, and a Carbuncle in the first rowe:
And he set four rows of gems in it. In the first row was a sardius stone, a topaz, an emerald;
11 And in the seconde rowe, an Emeraude, a Saphir, and a Diamond:
in the second was a garnet, a sapphire, and a jasper;

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

17 And they put ye two wrethe cheines of gold in the two rings, in the corners of the brest plate.
from which two golden chains would hang, which they connected with the hooks that projected from the corners of the ephod.
18 Also the two other endes of the two wrethen chaines they fastened in the two bosses, and put the on the shoulders of the Ephod vpon the forefront of it.
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,

20 They made also two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the Ephod, beneath on the foreside of it, and ouer against his coupling aboue the broydered garde of the Ephod.
They also made the tunic of the ephod entirely from hyacinth,
21 Then they fastened the brest plate by his rings vnto the rings of the Ephod, with a lace of blewe silke, that it might bee fast vpon the broydered garde of the Ephod, and that the brest plate should not be loosed from the Ephod, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

22 Moreouer, he made the robe of the Ephod of wouen worke, altogether of blewe silke.
Then, at the feet below, they also made pomegranates from hyacinth, purple, vermillion, and fine twisted linen,
23 And the hole of the robe was in the middes of it, as the coller of an habergeon, with an edge about the coller, that it shoulde not rent.
and little bells from the purest gold, which they set between the pomegranates at the very bottom of the tunic all around.
24 And they made vpon the skirts of the robe pomegranates, of blewe silke, and purple, and skarlet, and fine linen twined.
So then, the high priest approached, adorned with gold bell and pomegranate, when he performed his ministry, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
25 They made also belles of pure gold and put the belles betweene the pomegranates vpon the skirtes of the robe rounde about betweene the pomegranates.

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.”
30 Finally they made the plate for the holy crowne of fine golde, and wrote vpon it a superscription like to the grauing of a signet, HOLINES TO THE LORD.
And they fastened it to the headdress with a hyacinth band, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
31 And they tied vnto it a lace of blewe silke to fasten it on hie vpon the miter, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
