And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of chequer work, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

and two chains of pure gold; like cords shalt thou make them, of wreathen work: and thou shalt put the wreathen chains on the ouches.
15 “Ị ga-adụ ihe mgbochi obi nke ikpe, nke bụ ọrụ aka onye ǹka. Mee ya dịka efọọd ahụ: jiri ogho edo edo, nke anụnụ anụnụ, na ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie, na nke uhie uhie nakwa ezi akwa ọcha a kpara nke ọma mee ya.

And the stones shall be according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, every one according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.

And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.

And the [other] two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt put on the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, in the forepart thereof.

And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate, upon the edge thereof, which is toward the side of the ephod inward.
27 Ị ga-akpụ mgbaaka ọlaedo abụọ ọzọ, konye ha nʼelu ubu abụọ nke efọọd ahụ, nʼokpuru nʼebe nʼihu ya, na nso nso ebe a dụkọtara ya, nʼelu ihe okike ukwu nke efọọd ahụ.
And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and shalt put them on the two shoulderpieces of the ephod underneath, in the forepart thereof, close by the coupling thereof, above the cunningly woven band of the ephod.
28 A ga-eji eriri na-acha anụnụ kekọta mgbaaka ihe mgbochi obi ahụ na mgbaaka efọọd ahụ, jikọtaa ya na ihe okike ukwu ahụ, ime ka ihe mgbochi obi ahụ ghara ịtọghapụ site nʼefọọd ahụ.
And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be upon the cunningly woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.
29 “Nʼụzọ dị otu a, mgbe ọbụla Erọn banyere nʼEbe Nsọ, ọ ga-ebu aha ụmụ ndị ikom Izrel niile nʼelu obi ya, nʼelu ihe mgbochi obi nke ikpe ahụ, dịka ihe ncheta nʼihu Onyenwe anyị mgbe niile.
And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
30 Ị ga-etinyekwa nʼime ihe mgbochi obi ahụ ụmụ nkume abụọ e ji ajụta ase nke bụ Urim na Tumim. Ha ga-adị nʼelu obi Erọn mgbe ọbụla ọ gara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Otu a kwa, Erọn ga-ebukwa ihe e ji ajụta ase banyere ndị Izrel nʼelu obi ya mgbe niile, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron’s heart, when he goeth in before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.

And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.

And it shall have a hole for the head in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of a coat of mail, that it be not rent.
33 Nʼọnụ ala ala uwe ahụ gburugburu, ị ga-akpanye ihe ọkpụkpa oyiyi mkpụrụ pomegranet. Ọ bụ ogho nke na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie na uhie uhie ka ị ga-eji. Ị ga-akpanyekwa ataṅụ ọlaedo nʼetiti ha.
And upon the skirts of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the skirts thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
34 Nʼọnụ ọnụ ala uwe mwụda ahụ, a ga-adụnye otu ataṅụ ọlaedo, otu oyiyi mkpụrụ pomegranet, gbaa gburugburu.
a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the skirts of the robe round about.
35 Mgbe ọbụla Erọn na-eje ozi ya, ọ ghaghị iyi ya. Aga na anụ mgbịrịgba ataṅụ ahụ ka ọ na-akụ, mgbe ọ banyere nʼEbe Nsọ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, na mgbe o si nʼebe ahụ na-apụta, ka ọ ghara ịnwụ.
And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and the sound thereof shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not.

And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLY TO THE LORD.
37 Kenye eriri na-acha anụnụ anụnụ i ji jikọta ya na ihe ike nʼisi ahụ; ọ ga-adị nʼihu akwa ike nʼisi ahụ.
And thou shalt put it on a lace of blue, and it shall be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
38 Ọ ga-adị nʼegedege ihu Erọn. Ọ ga-ebukwa ikpe ọmụma metụtara njehie gbasara ihe nsọ niile nke ụmụ Izrel doro nsọ, na onyinye ha niile. Ọ ga-adị nʼegedege ihu Erọn mgbe niile, ka ha bụrụ ndị Onyenwe anyị ga-anabata.
And it shall be upon Aaron’s forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
39 “Jiri ezi akwa ọcha kpaa uwe ime ahụ. Werekwa ezi akwa ọcha mee akwa ike nʼisi ahụ. Ihe ike nʼukwu ahụ ga-abụ ọrụ aka onye ǹka na-akpanye ihe ịchọ mma.
And thou shalt weave the coat in chequer work of fine linen, and thou shalt make a mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make a girdle, the work of the embroiderer.
40 Meekwara ụmụ ndị ikom Erọn uwe ime ahụ, ihe ike nʼukwu na akwa ike nʼisi, inye ha ugwu na nsọpụrụ.
And for Aaron’s sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and headtires shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.
41 Mgbe i yinyekwasịrị Erọn nwanne gị na ụmụ ya ndị ikom uwe ndị a, tee ha mmanụ, doo ha nsọ. Chee ha nʼihu m ka ha bụrụ ndị na-ejere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and upon his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office.
42 “Meekwara ha uwe ụkwụ nke eji akwa ọcha mee, maka ikpuchi anụ ahụ ha. Ọ ga-esite nʼukwu ruo nʼikpere.
And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover the flesh of their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach:
43 Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom aghaghị iyi ha mgbe niile ha ga-aba nʼime ụlọ nzute, maọbụ mgbe ha na-abịa nso ebe ịchụ aja ije ozi nʼEbe Nsọ. Ka ha ghara imeta ihe ikpe ọmụma, ma nwụọ. “Nke a ga-abụ iwu na ụkpụrụ ebighị ebi, nke ga-adịrị Erọn na ụmụ ụmụ ya.
and they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they go in unto the tent of meeting, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and unto his seed after him.
