Exodus 39:4-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

4. And he made two edges, coupled to one another at the top of both sides,

5. and a wide belt from the same colors, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

6. He also prepared two onyx stones, set and enclosed in gold, and engraved with the skill of a jeweler, with the names of the sons of Israel.

7. And he set them in the sides of the ephod, as a memorial to the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.

8. He also made a breastplate, wrought with embroidery, according to the work of the ephod, from gold, hyacinth, purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen:

9. with four equal sides, doubled, of the measure of the palm of a hand.

10. And he set four rows of gems in it. In the first row was a sardius stone, a topaz, an emerald;

11. in the second was a garnet, a sapphire, and a jasper;

12. in the third was a zircon, an agate, and an amethyst;

13. in the fourth was a chrysolite, an onyx, and a beryl, surrounded and enclosed in gold by their rows.
