Exodus 28:1-8 New English Translation (NET)

1. “And you, bring near to you your brother Aaron and his sons with him from among the Israelites, so that they may minister as my priests – Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.

2. You must make holy garments for your brother Aaron, for glory and for beauty.

3. You are to speak to all who are specially skilled, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, so that they may make Aaron’s garments to set him apart to minister as my priest.

4. Now these are the garments that they are to make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a fitted tunic, a turban, and a sash. They are to make holy garments for your brother Aaron and for his sons, that they may minister as my priests.

5. The artisans are to use the gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine linen.

6. “They are to make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, the work of an artistic designer.

7. It is to have two shoulder pieces attached to two of its corners, so it can be joined together.

8. The artistically woven waistband of the ephod that is on it is to be like it, of one piece with the ephod, of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen.
