11. As a jeweler engraves a signet, you shall engrave the two stones according to the names of the sons of Israel; you shall set them in filigree settings of gold.

12. You shall put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, and Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord on his two shoulders for a memorial.

13. You shall make filigree settings of gold,

14. and two chains of pure gold; you shall make them of twisted cordage work, and you shall put the corded chains on the filigree settings.

15. "You shall make a breastpiece of judgment, the work of a skillful workman; like the work of the ephod you shall make it: of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen you shall make it.

16. It shall be square and folded double, a span in length and a span in width.

17. You shall mount on it four rows of stones; the first row shall be a row of ruby, topaz and emerald;

18. and the second row a turquoise, a sapphire and a diamond;

19. and the third row a jacinth, an agate and an amethyst;
