又要吩咐一切心中有智慧的，就是我用智慧的靈所充滿的，給亞倫做衣服，使他分別為聖，可以給我供祭司的職分。
4 The garments that they must make are a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a coat of woven work, a turban, and a sash. They must make these garments that are set them apart to me. They will be for your brother Aaron and his sons so that they may serve me as priests.
所要做的就是胸牌、以弗得、外袍、雜色的內袍、冠冕、腰帶，使你哥哥亞倫和他兒子穿這聖服，可以給我供祭司的職分。

13 You must make settings of gold
要用金子做二槽，
14 and two braided chains of pure gold like cords, and you must attach the chains to the settings.
又拿精金，用擰工彷彿擰繩子，做兩條鍊子，把這擰成的鍊子搭在二槽上。」
15 You must make a breastpiece for decision making, the work of a skillful workman, fashioned like the ephod. Make it of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine linen.
「你要用巧匠的手工做一個決斷的胸牌。要和以弗得一樣的做法：用金線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色線，並撚的細麻做成。

28 They must tie the breastpiece by its rings to the ephod's rings with a blue cord, so that it might be attached just above the ephod's woven waistband. This is so that the breastpiece might not become unattached from the ephod.
要用藍細帶子把胸牌的環子與以弗得的環子繫住，使胸牌貼在以弗得巧工織的帶子上，不可與以弗得離縫。
29 When Aaron goes into the holy place, he must carry the names of the people of Israel over his heart in the breastpiece for decision making, as a continuing memorial before Yahweh.
亞倫進聖所的時候，要將決斷胸牌，就是刻着以色列兒子名字的，帶在胸前，在耶和華面前常作紀念。
30 You are to put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece for decision making, so they may be over Aaron's heart when he goes in before Yahweh. Thus Aaron will always carry the means for making decisions for the people of Israel over his heart before Yahweh.
又要將烏陵和土明放在決斷的胸牌裏；亞倫進到耶和華面前的時候，要帶在胸前，在耶和華面前常將以色列人的決斷牌帶在胸前。」
31 You will make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue fabric.
「你要做以弗得的外袍，顏色全是藍的。
32 It must have an opening for the head in the middle. The opening must have a woven edge round about so that it does not tear. This must be the work of a weaver.
袍上要為頭留一領口，口的周圍織出領邊來，彷彿鎧甲的領口，免得破裂。
33 On the bottom hem, you must make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all around. Gold bells must be between them all around.
袍子周圍底邊上要用藍色、紫色、朱紅色線做石榴。在袍子周圍的石榴中間要有金鈴鐺：
34 There must be a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate—and so on—all around the hem of the robe.
一個金鈴鐺一個石榴，一個金鈴鐺一個石榴，在袍子周圍的底邊上。
35 The robe is to be on Aaron when he serves, so that its sound can be heard when he goes into the holy place before Yahweh and when he leaves. This is so that he does not die.
亞倫供職的時候要穿這袍子。他進聖所到耶和華面前，以及出來的時候，袍上的響聲必被聽見，使他不至於死亡。
36 You must make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it, like the engraving on a signet, “Holy to Yahweh.”

37 You must attach this plate by a blue cord to the front of the turban.
要用一條藍細帶子將牌繫在冠冕的前面。
38 It must be on Aaron's forehead; he must always bear any guilt that might attach to the offering of the holy gifts that the Israelites set apart to Yahweh. The turban must be always on his forehead so that Yahweh may accept their gifts.
這牌必在亞倫的額上，亞倫要擔當干犯聖物條例的罪孽；這聖物是以色列人在一切的聖禮物上所分別為聖的。這牌要常在他的額上，使他們可以在耶和華面前蒙悅納。
39 You must make the coat with fine linen, and you must make a turban of fine linen. You must also make a sash, the work of an embroiderer.
要用雜色細麻線織內袍，用細麻布做冠冕，又用繡花的手工做腰帶。
40 For Aaron's sons you must make coats, sashes, and headbands for their honor and splendor.
「你要為亞倫的兒子做內袍、腰帶、裹頭巾，為榮耀，為華美。
41 You must clothe Aaron your brother, and his sons with him. You must anoint them, ordain them, and set them apart to me, so that they may serve me as priests.
要把這些給你的哥哥亞倫和他的兒子穿戴，又要膏他們，將他們分別為聖，好給我供祭司的職分。
42 You must make for them linen undergarments to cover their naked flesh, that will cover them from the waist to the thighs.
要給他們做細麻布褲子，遮掩下體；褲子當從腰達到大腿。
43 Aaron and his sons must wear these garments when they enter the tent of meeting or when they approach the altar to serve in the holy place. They must do this so they would not be guilty or else they would die. This is a permanent law for Aaron and his descendants after him.
亞倫和他兒子進入會幕，或就近壇，在聖所供職的時候必穿上，免得擔罪而死。這要為亞倫和他的後裔作永遠的定例。」
