^39:27They made tunics of fine linen—the work of a weaver, for Aaron and for his sons—^39:28and the turban of fine linen, the headbands of fine linen, and the undergarments of fine twisted linen. ^39:29The sash was of fine twisted linen and blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, the work of an embroiderer, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^39:30They made a plate, the holy diadem, of pure gold and wrote on it an inscription, as on the engravings of a seal, “Holiness to the Lord.” ^39:31They attached to it a blue cord, to attach it to the turban above, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
