Exodus 39:1–7

Making Garments for Priests

39And from the blue and the purple and the crimson yarns they made woven garments for serving in the sanctuary, and they made the holy garments that were for Aaron, as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ²And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen. ³And he hammered out the leaves of gold, and he cut off cords to weave in the midst of the blue and in the midst of the purple and in the midst of the crimson and in the midst of the linen—the work of a skilled craftsman. ⁴They made joined shoulder pieces for it; it was joined on its two edges. ⁵And the waistband of his ephod, which was of one piece with it,^a was of like work, gold, blue, and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen, as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ⁶And they made onyx stones mounted in gold filigree settings, engraved with seal engravings according to the names of the Israelites.^{b 7}And he set them on the ephod’s shoulder pieces as stones of remembrance for the Israelites,^c as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
