Bezalel, Oholiab, and the other skilled workmen made the beautiful clothes for Aaron to wear while he did his work as a priest in the Holy Place. They made them from blue, purple, and red cloth, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
2 Wɔde asaawatam bi a wɔanwen afi asaawa a wɔato mu na ɛpam asɔfotade nkataase no.
They made the sacred apron from fine white linen and from blue, purple, and red cloth.

They hammered some thin sheets of gold and cut them into thin strips which they embroidered into the fine linen and into the blue, purple, and red cloth.
4 Wɔde nwoma a wɔapam susoo nkataase no mu fi ase besii mmati ahama abien no mu.
The apron had two shoulder straps, to join the front part to the back part at the shoulders.
5 Na wɔde ntama tuntum, bibiri, koogyan ne sikakɔkɔɔ yɛɛ nkyekyeremu sɛnea Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ Mose no.
A carefully-woven sash, which was made from the same materials as the sacred apron, was [sewn] onto the sacred apron. This was made exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
6 Abo apopobibiri abien a wotwa de femfam mmati ahama abien no a eso asɔfotade no nkataase no mu no, sikakɔkɔɔ na wɔde kyerɛw Israelfo mmusuakuw no nyinaa din guu so sɛnea wɔkyerɛw nsateaa so kaa so no.
They cut two valuable onyx stones and enclosed them in a tiny gold frame, and a skilled gem-cutter engraved on the stones the names of the twelve sons of Jacob.
7 Saa abo yi yɛ nkae ade de ma Awurade fa Israelfo ho, na wɔyɛɛ ne nyinaa sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ no no ara pɛ.
They fastened the stones to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron, to represent the twelve Israeli tribes, exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
8 Wɔpam adɛbo no te sɛ asɔfotade a wɔde nwera ankasa yɛe, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ hama ne asaawa tuntum, bibiri ne koogyan na ɛnwen mu.
They made the sacred chest pouch. They made it of the same materials as the sacred apron and embroidered it in the same way.
9 Na ɛyɛ ahinanan a ne fa biara susuw nsateaa akron a wɔabu abɔ so.
It was square, and the material was folded double, so that it was (9 in./22 cm.) long and (9 in./22 cm.) wide.
10 Na wɔhyehyɛɛ abo a ɛsom bo sesaa so nnidiso nnidiso anan wɔ mu. Nnidiso a edi kan no yɛ bogyanambo, akraatebo ne ahabammono bo;
They fastened four rows of valuable stones onto the pouch. In the first row, they put a [red] ruby, a [yellow] topaz, and a [red] garnet.
11 nnidiso a ɛto so abien no yɛ nsrammabo, hoabo ne dɛnkyɛmmo;
In the second row, they put a [green] emerald, a [blue] sapphire, and a [clear/white] diamond.

In the third row they put a [red] jacinth, a [white] agate, and a [purple] amethyst.

In the fourth row, they put a [yellow] beryl, a [red] carnelian, and a [green] jasper. They set each of the stones in tiny gold frames.
14 Wɔyɛɛ abo no te sɛ nsɔwanode bi kyerɛw Israel mmusuakuw dumien no din guu so.
On each of the twelve stones they engraved the name of one of the sons of Jacob, to represent one of the twelve Israeli tribes.
15 Sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobetumi de adɛbo no aso asɔfotade no mu no, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ nkaa hyehyɛɛ asɔfotade no mmati ntareso abien no so.
They made two [chains] from pure gold and braided them like cords, to [attach] the sacred pouch [to the sacred apron].
16 Wɔsan yɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nkaa abien de hyehyɛɛ adɛbo no ntwɔtwɔw so wɔ soro.
They made two gold rings, and they attached them to the upper corners of the sacred pouch.
17 Wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ahama abien no hyehyɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nkaa a ɛwɔ adɛbo no mu no mu.
They fastened one end of each cord to one of the rings.
18 Wɔde ahama no ti no bobɔɔ sikakɔkɔɔ no a esuso asɔfotade no mu no mu.
They fastened the other end of each cord to the two (settings/tiny frames) [that enclosed the stones]. Then they attached the sacred pouch to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron.

Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the lower corners of the sacred pouch, on the inside edges, next to the sacred apron.
20 Wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ nkaa abien susoo asɔfotade no mmati ntareso no mu ma ɛbɛn nkyekyeremu a wɔanwen no fɛfɛɛfɛ ne asɔfotade no ahyiae so no.
They made two more gold rings and attached them to the lower part of the front of the shoulder straps, near to where [the shoulder straps] were joined [to the sacred apron], just above the carefully-woven sash/waistband.
21 Sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ na adɛbo no begyina pɛpɛɛpɛ wɔ nkyekyeremu fɛfɛ no so nti, wɔde ntama tuntum kyekyeree nkaa a esuso adɛbo no ne asɔfotade no mu. Eyinom nyinaa, Awurade na ɔhyɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ.
They tied the rings on the sacred pouch to the rings on the sacred apron with a blue cord, so that the sacred pouch was above the sash/waistband and would not come loose from the sacred apron.
22 Asɔfotade no fa kɛse no ara de, wɔde ntama tuntum na ɛnwenee
They made the robe that is to be worn underneath the priest’s sacred apron, using only blue [cloth].
23 na wotwaa mfimfini tokuru pempam bi faa so maa ano no yɛɛ den sɛnea wɔhyɛ a ɛrentetew.
It had an opening through which [the priest] would put his head. They sewed a border around this opening, to prevent the material from tearing.
24 Na wɔde bibiri ne asaawa a ɛbere dum ne koogyan a wɔanwen yɛɛ biribi te sɛ atoaa aba de sensɛn batakari no ase mmuano no ano.
At the lower edge on the robe, they fastened [decorations that resembled] pomegranate fruit. The decorations were [woven from] blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
25 Na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ yɛɛ nnɔnnɔmma na wɔde biribi te sɛ atoaa aba no hyehyɛɛ ntam ne ntam wɔ batakari no ase mmuano no ano de twaa ho hyiae.
Between each of these decorations, they fastened a tiny bell made from pure gold, so there was a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, alternating all around the hem of the robe
26 Sɛ Aaron hyɛ asɔfotade yi a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɔrekɔsom Awurade sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnyɛ no.

They made the embroidered sash/waistband [for Aaron] from fine linen and from blue, purple, and red cloth, and they embroidered designs on it using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
30 Na afei, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ yɛɛ abɔanim a wɔakyerɛw so: Kronkron Ma Awurade.
They also made the tiny ornament of pure gold and had a skilled workman engrave on it the words, ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’.

They fastened this to the front of the turban by a blue cord, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
