1And of the blue , and purple , and scarlet , they made cloths of service , to do service in the holy place , and made the holy garments for Aaron ; as the LORD 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 , with cunning work . 4They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it together : by the two edges was it coupled together . 5And the curious girdle of his ephod , that was upon it, was of the same, according to the work thereof; of gold , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined linen ; as the LORD commanded Moses . 6And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold , graven , as signets are graven , with the names of the children of Israel . 7And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod , that they should be stones for a memorial to the children of Israel ; as the LORD commanded Moses .
The Completion of the Tabernacle
8And he made the breastplate of cunning work , like the work of the ephod ; of gold , 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 doubled . 10And they set in it four rows of stones : the first row was a sardius , a topaz , and a carbuncle : this was the first row . 11And the second row , an emerald , a sapphire , and a diamond . 12And the third row , a ligure , an agate , and an amethyst . 13And the fourth row , a beryl , an onyx , and a jasper : they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings . 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 with his name , according to the twelve tribes . 15And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends , of wreathen work of pure gold . 16And they made two ouches of gold , and two gold rings ; and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate . 17And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate . 18And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches , and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod , before it . 19And they made two rings of gold , and put them on the two ends of the breastplate , upon the border of it, which was on the side of the ephod inward . 20And they made two other golden rings , and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath , toward the forepart of it, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod . 21And they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue , that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod , and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod ; as the LORD commanded Moses .
The Presentation of the Tabernacle
22And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work , all of blue . 23And there was an hole in the midst of the robe , as the hole of an habergeon , with a band round about the hole , that it should not rend . 24And they made upon the hems 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 hem of the robe , round about between the pomegranates ; 26A bell and a pomegranate , a bell and a pomegranate , round about the hem of the robe to minister in; as the LORD commanded Moses . 27And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron , and for his sons , 28And a mitre of fine linen , and goodly bonnets of fine linen , and linen breeches of fine twined linen , 29And a girdle of fine twined linen , and blue , and purple , and scarlet , of needlework ; as the LORD commanded Moses . 30And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold , and wrote upon it a writing , like to the engravings of a signet , HOLINESS TO THE LORD . 31And they tied unto it a lace of blue , to fasten it on high upon the mitre ; as the LORD commanded Moses . 32Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished : and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses , so did they. 33And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses , the tent , and all his furniture , his taches , his boards , his bars , and his pillars , and his sockets , 34And the covering of rams’ skins dyed red , and the covering of badgers’ skins , and the vail of the covering , 35The ark of the testimony , and the staves thereof, and the mercy seat , 36The table , and all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread , 37The pure candlestick , with the lamps thereof, even with the lamps to be set in order , and all the vessels thereof, and the oil for light , 38And the golden altar , and the anointing oil , and the sweet incense , and the hanging for the tabernacle door , 39The brasen altar , and his grate of brass , his staves , and all his vessels , the laver and his foot , 40The hangings of the court , his pillars , and his sockets , and the hanging for the court gate , his cords , and his pins , and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle , for the tent of the congregation , 41The cloths of service to do service in the holy place , and the holy garments for Aaron the priest , and his sons’ garments , to minister in the priest’s office . 42According to all that the LORD commanded Moses , so the children of Israel made all the work . 43And Moses did look upon all the work , and, behold, they had done it as the LORD had commanded , even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.
