The breastpiece completed

8He made the breastpiece, the work of a skillful designer, like the work of the ephod: of gold, blue, purple, scarlet yarn, and finely twisted linen.

9It was square; they made the breastpiece doubled, a span its length and a span its width, doubled.

10And they mounted on it four rows of stones: the first row was a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald.

11and the second row: turquoise, sapphire, and diamond.

12and the third row: jacinth, agate, and amethyst.

13and the fourth row: beryl, onyx, and jasper, mounted in settings of gold in their mountings.

14And the stones corresponded to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve according to their names, engraved like a signet, each according to its name, for the twelve tribes.

15And they made on the breastpiece chains of braided work, like cords, of pure gold.

16They made two gold settings and two gold rings, and they put the two rings on the two ends of the breastpiece.

17And they put the two gold cords on the two rings at the ends of the breastpiece.

18And they put the two ends of the two braided chains on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, at its front.

19They made two gold rings and put them on the two ends of the breastpiece, on its edge that was on the inner side toward the ephod.

20They made two gold rings and put them on the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, below, on its front side, opposite its joining, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.

21They fastened the breastpiece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue, so that it would be on the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and so that the breastpiece would not come loose from on the ephod, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
