14. These stones were twelve, to match the names of the sons of Israel, and each stone was engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.
15. Chains of pure gold, twisted like cords, were made for the breastpiece,
16. together with two gold filigree rosettes and two gold rings. The two rings were fastened to the two upper ends of the breastpiece.
17. The two gold chains were then fastened to the two rings at the ends of the breastpiece.
18. The other two ends of the two chains were fastened in front to the two filigree rosettes, which were attached to the shoulder straps of the ephod.
19. Two other gold rings were made and put on the two lower ends of the breastpiece, on the edge facing the ephod.
20. Two more gold rings were made and fastened to the bottom of the two shoulder straps next to where they joined the ephod in front, just above its embroidered belt.
21. Violet ribbons bound the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod, so that the breastpiece stayed right above the embroidered belt of the ephod and did not swing loose from it. All this was just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22. The robe of the ephod was woven entirely of violet yarn,
23. with an opening in its center like the opening of a shirt, with selvage around the opening to keep it from being torn.
24. At the hem of the robe pomegranates were made of violet, purple, and scarlet yarn and of fine linen twined;
25. bells of pure gold were also made and put between the pomegranates all around the hem of the robe:
26. a bell, a pomegranate, a bell, a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe which was to be worn in performing the ministry—all this, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
27. For Aaron and his sons there were also woven tunics of fine linen;
28. the turban of fine linen; the ornate skullcaps of fine linen; linen pants of fine linen twined;
29. and sashes of variegated work made of fine linen twined and of violet, purple, and scarlet yarn, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30. The plate of the sacred diadem was made of pure gold and inscribed, as on a seal engraving: “Sacred to the Lord.”
31. It was tied over the turban with a violet ribbon, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
32. Thus the entire work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed. The Israelites did the work just as the Lord had commanded Moses; so it was done.
33. They then brought to Moses the tabernacle, the tent with all its furnishings, the clasps, the frames, the bars, the columns, the pedestals,
