Exodus 28
1 "Bring Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, near to you from among the children of Israel, that he may minister to me in the priest's office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons.
Applica quoque ad te Aaron fratrem tuum cum filiis suis de medio filiorum Israel, ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi: Aaron, Nadab, et Abiu, Eleazar, et Ithamar.
2 You shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty.
Faciesque vestem sanctam Aaron fratri tuo in gloriam et decorem.
3 You shall speak to all who are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they make Aaron's garments to sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest's office.
Et loqueris cunctis sapientibus corde, quos replevi spiritu prudentiæ, ut faciant vestes Aaron, in quibus sanctificatus ministret mihi.
4 These are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of checker work, a turban, and a sash: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, and his sons, that he may minister to me in the priest's office.
Hæc autem erunt vestimenta quæ faciet: Rationale, et superhumerale, tunicam et lineam strictam, cidarim et balteum. Facient vestimenta sancta fratri tuo Aaron et filiis eius, ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi.
5 They shall take the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the fine linen.
Accipientque aurum, et hyacinthum, et purpuram, coccumque bis tinctum, et byssum.
6 "They shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the skillful workman.
Facient autem superhumerale de auro et hyacintho et purpura, coccoque bis tincto, et bysso retorta, opere polymito.
7 It shall have two shoulder straps joined to the two ends of it, that it may be joined together.
Duas oras iunctas habebit in utroque latere summitatum, ut in unum redeant.
8 The skillfully woven band, which is on it, that is on him, shall be like its work and of the same piece; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
Ipsa quoque textura et cuncta operis varietas erit ex auro et hyacintho, et purpura, coccoque bis tincto, et bysso retorta.
9 You shall take two onyx stones, and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel:
Sumesque duos lapides onychinos, et sculpes in eis nomina filiorum Israel:
10 six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the six that remain on the other stone, in the order of their birth.
sex nomina in lapide uno, et sex reliqua in altero, iuxta ordinem nativitatis eorum.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, you shall engrave the two stones, according to the names of the sons of Israel: you shall make them to be enclosed in settings of gold.
Opere sculptoris et cælatura gemmarii, sculpes eos nominibus filiorum Israel, inclusos auro atque circumdatos:
12 You shall put the two stones on the shoulder straps of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the sons of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD on his two shoulders for a memorial.
et pones in utroque latere superhumeralis, memoriale filiis Israel. Portabitque Aaron nomina eorum coram Domino super utrumque humerum, ob recordationem.
13 You shall make settings of gold,
Facies et uncinos ex auro,
14 and two chains of pure gold; you shall make them like cords of braided work: and you shall put the braided chains on the settings.
et duas catenulas ex auro purissimo sibi invicem cohærentes, quas inseres uncinis.
15 "You shall make a breastplate of judgment, the work of the skillful workman; like the work of the ephod you shall make it; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, you shall make it.
Rationale quoque iudicii facies opere polymito iuxta texturam superhumeralis ex auro, hyacintho, et purpura, coccoque bis tincto, et bysso retorta.
16 It shall be square and folded double; a span shall be its length of it, and a span its breadth.
Quadrangulum erit et duplex: mensuram palmi habebit tam in longitudine quam in latitudine.
17 You shall set in it settings of stones, four rows of stones: a row of ruby, topaz, and beryl shall be the first row;
Ponesque in eo quattuor ordines lapidum: in primo versu erit lapis sardius, et topazius, et smaragdus:
18 and the second row a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;
in secundo carbunculus, sapphirus, et iaspis:
19 and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
in tertio ligurius, achates, et amethystus:
20 and the fourth row a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be enclosed in gold in their settings.
in quarto chrysolithus, onychinus, et beryllus. Inclusi auro erunt per ordines suos.
21 The stones shall be according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, everyone according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.
Habebuntque nomina filiorum Israel: duodecim nominibus cælabuntur, singuli lapides nominibus singulorum per duodecim tribus.
22 You shall make on the breastplate chains like cords, of braided work of pure gold.
Facies in rationali catenas sibi invicem cohærentes ex auro purissimo:
23 You shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold, and shall put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
et duos annulos aureos, quos pones in utraque rationalis summitate:
24 You shall put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
catenasque aureas iunges annulis, qui sunt in marginibus eius:
25 The other two ends of the two braided chains you shall put on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod in its forepart.
et ipsarum catenarum extrema duobus copulabis uncinis in utroque latere superhumeralis quod rationale respicit.
26 You shall make two rings of gold, and you shall put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its edge, which is toward the side of the ephod inward.
Facies et duos annulos aureos, quos pones in summitatibus rationalis, in oris, quæ e regione sunt superhumeralis, et posteriora eius aspiciunt.
27 You shall make two rings of gold, and shall put them on the two shoulder straps of the ephod underneath, in its forepart, close by its coupling, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
Nec non et alios duos annulos aureos, qui ponendi sunt in utroque latere superhumeralis deorsum, quod respicit contra faciem iuncturæ inferioris, ut aptari possit cum superhumerali,
28 They shall bind the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be on the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate may not swing out from the ephod.
et stringatur rationale annulis suis cum annulis superhumeralis vitta hyacinthina, ut maneat iunctura fabrefacta, et a seinvicem rationale et superhumerale nequeant separari.
29 Aaron shall bear the names of the sons of Israel on the breastplate for judging over his heart, when he goes in to the holy place, as a continual reminder before God.
Portabitque Aaron nomina filiorum Israel in rationali iudicii super pectus suum, quando ingredietur Sanctuarium, memoriale coram Domino in æternum.
30 You are to put in the breastplate for judging the Urim and the Thummim; and they are to be over Aaron's heart, when he goes in before the LORD. And Aaron will carry the means to make decisions for the children of Israel over his heart before the LORD continually.
Pones autem in rationali iudicii Doctrinam et Veritatem, quæ erunt in pectore Aaron, quando ingredietur coram Domino: et gestabit iudicium filiorum Israel in pectore suo, in conspectu Domini semper.
31 "You shall make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
Facies et tunicam superhumeralis totam hyacinthinam,
32 It shall have a hole for the head in its midst: it shall have a binding of woven work around its hole, as it were the hole of a coat of mail, that it not be torn.
in cuius medio supra erit capitium, et ora per gyrum eius textilis, sicut fieri solet in extremis vestium partibus, ne facile rumpatur.
33 On its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, around its hem; and bells of gold between and around them:
Deorsum vero, ad pedes eiusdem tunicæ, per circuitum, quasi mala punica facies, ex hyacintho, et purpura, et cocco bis tincto, mistis in medio tintinnabulis,
34 a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, around the hem of the robe.
ita ut tintinnabulum sit aureum et malum punicum: rursumque tintinnabulum aliud aureum et malum punicum.
35 It shall be on Aaron to minister: and its sound shall be heard when he goes in to the holy place before the LORD, and when he comes out, that he not die.
Et vestietur ea Aaron in officio ministerii, ut audiatur sonitus quando ingreditur et egreditur Sanctuarium in conspectu Domini, et non moriatur.
36 "You shall make a plate of pure gold, and engrave on it, like the engravings of a signet, 'HOLY TO THE LORD.'
Facies et laminam de auro purissimo: in qua sculpes opere cælatoris, Sanctum Domino.
37 You shall put it on a lace of blue, and it shall be on the sash; on the front of the sash it shall be.
Ligabisque eam vitta hyacinthina, et erit super tiaram,
38 It shall be on Aaron's forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall make holy in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always on his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
imminens fronti pontificis. Portabitque Aaron iniquitates eorum, quæ obtulerunt et sanctificaverunt filii Israel, in cunctis muneribus et donariis suis. Erit autem lamina semper in fronte eius, ut placatus sit eis Dominus.
39 You shall weave the coat in checker work of fine linen, and you shall make a turban of fine linen, and you shall make a sash, the work of the embroiderer.
Stringesque tunicam bysso, et tiaram byssinam facies, et balteum opere plumarii.
40 "You shall make coats for Aaron's sons, and you shall make sashes for them and you shall make headbands for them, for glory and for beauty.
Porro filiis Aaron tunicas lineas parabis et balteos ac tiaras in gloriam et decorem:
41 You shall put them on Aaron your brother, and on his sons with him, and shall anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest's office.
vestiesque his omnibus Aaron fratrem tuum et filios eius cum eo. Et cunctorum consecrabis manus, sanctificabisque illos, ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi.
42 You shall make them linen breeches to cover the flesh of their nakedness; from the waist even to the thighs they shall reach:
Facies et feminalia linea, ut operiant carnem turpitudinis suæ, a renibus usque ad femora:
43 They shall be on Aaron, and on his sons, when they go in to the Tent of Meeting, or when they come near to the altar to minister in the holy place; that they do not bear iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute forever to him and to his descendants after him.
et utentur eis Aaron et filii eius quando ingredientur tabernaculum testimonii, vel quando appropinquant ad altare ut ministrent in sanctuario, ne iniquitatis rei moriantur. Legitimum sempiternum erit Aaron, et semini eius post eum.
