1And of the blue , and purple , and scarlet , they made finely wrought garments, for ministering in the holy place , and made the holy garments for Aaron; as Jehovah commanded Moses . 2And he made the ephod of gold , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined linen . 3And they did beat the gold into thin plates , and cut it into wires , to work it in the blue , and in the purple , and in the scarlet , and in the fine linen , the work of the skilful workman . 4They made shoulder-pieces for it , joined together ; at the two ends was it joined together . 5And the skilfully woven band , that was upon it , wherewith to gird it on , was of the same piece and like the work thereof; of gold , of blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined linen ; as Jehovah commanded Moses . 6And they wrought the onyx stones, inclosed in settings of gold , graven with the engravings of a signet , according to the names of the children of Israel . 7And he put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the children of Israel ; as Jehovah commanded Moses .
The Completion of the Tabernacle
8And he made the breastplate , the work of the skilful workman , like the work of the ephod; of gold , of blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined linen . 9It was foursquare ; they made the breastplate double : a span was the length thereof , and a span the breadth thereof , being double . 10And they set in it four rows of stones. A row of sardius, topaz , and carbuncle was the first row ; 11and the second row , an emerald , a sapphire , and a diamond ; 12and the third row , a jacinth , an agate , and an amethyst; 13and the fourth row , a beryl , an onyx , and a jasper : they were inclosed in inclosings of gold in their settings . 14And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel , twelve , according to their names ; like the engravings of a signet , every one according to his name , for the twelve tribes . 15And they made upon the breastplate chains like cords , of wreathen work of pure gold . 16And they made two settings of gold , and two gold rings , and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate . 17And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate . 18And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains they put on the two settings , and put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, in the forepart thereof . 19And they made two rings of gold , and put them upon the two ends of the breastplate , upon the edge thereof, which was toward the side of the ephod inward . 20And they made two rings of gold , and put them on the two shoulder-pieces of the ephod underneath , in the forepart thereof , close by the coupling thereof , above the skilfully woven band of the ephod. 21And they did bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue , that it might be upon the skilfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as Jehovah commanded Moses .
The Presentation of the Tabernacle
22And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work , all of blue ; 23and the hole of the robe in the midst thereof , as the hole of a coat of mail , with a binding round about the hole of it , that it should not be rent . 24And they made upon the skirts of the robe pomegranates of blue , and purple , and scarlet , and twined linen . 25And they made bells of pure gold , and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the skirts of the robe round about , between the pomegranates ; 26a bell and a pomegranate , a bell and a pomegranate , upon the skirts of the robe round about , to minister in ; as Jehovah commanded Moses . 27And they made the coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for his sons , 28and the mitre of fine linen , and the goodly head-tires of fine linen , and the linen breeches of fine twined linen , 29and the girdle of fine twined linen , and blue , and purple , and scarlet , the work of the embroiderer ; as Jehovah commanded Moses . 30And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold , and wrote upon it a writing , like the engravings of a signet , HOLY TO JEHOVAH . 31And they tied unto it a lace of blue , to fasten it upon the mitre above ; as Jehovah commanded Moses . 32Thus was finished all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting : and the children of Israel did according to all that Jehovah commanded Moses ; so did they . 33And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses , the Tent, and all its furniture , its clasps , its boards , its bars , and its pillars , and its sockets; 34and the covering of rams’ skins dyed red, and the covering of sealskins, and the veil of the screen ; 35the ark of the testimony , and the staves thereof, and the mercy-seat; 36the table , all the vessels thereof , and the showbread ; 37the pure candlestick , the lamps thereof , even the lamps to be set in order , and all the vessels thereof , and the oil for the light ; 38and the golden altar , and the anointing oil , and the sweet incense , and the screen for the door of the Tent; 39the brazen altar , and its grating of brass , its staves, and all its vessels , the laver and its base ; 40the hangings of the court , its pillars , and its sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court , the cords thereof , and the pins thereof , and all the instruments of the service of the tabernacle , for the tent of meeting ; 41the finely wrought garments for ministering in the holy place , and the holy garments for Aaron the priest , and the garments of his sons , to minister in the priest ’s office. 42According to all that Jehovah commanded Moses , so the children of Israel did all the work . 43And Moses saw all the work , and , behold , they had done it ; as Jehovah had commanded , even so had they done it : and Moses blessed them .
