Exodus 28:15–28

¹⁵‘And thou hast made a breastplate of judgment, work of a designer; according to the work of the ephod thou dost make it; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen thou dost make it; ¹⁶it is square, doubled, a span its length, and a span its breadth.

¹⁷‘And thou hast set in it settings of stone, four rows of stone; a row of sardius, topaz, and carbuncle is the first row; ¹⁸and the second row is emerald, sapphire, and diamond; ¹⁹and the third row is opal, agate, and amethyst; ²⁰and the fourth row is beryl, and onyx, and jasper; embroidered with gold are they in their settings, ²¹and the stones are according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names, openings of a signet, each by his name are they for the twelve tribes.

²²‘And thou hast made on the breastplate wreathed chains, work of thick bands, of pure gold; ²³and thou hast made on the breastplate two rings of gold, and hast put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate; ²⁴and thou hast put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate; ²⁵and the two ends of the two thick bands thou dost put on the two embroidered things, and thou hast put them on the shoulders of the ephod over-against its face.

²⁶‘And thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast set them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its border, which is over-against the ephod within; ²⁷and thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast put them on the two shoulders of the ephod, beneath, over-against its front, over-against its joining, above the girdle of the ephod, ²⁸and they bind the breastplate by its rings unto the rings of the ephod with a ribbon of blue, to be above the girdle of the ephod, and the breastplate is not loosed from the ephod.
