30. Insert the Urim and Thummim into the sacred chestpiece so they will be carried over Aaron’s heart when he goes into the lord’s presence. In this way, Aaron will always carry over his heart the objects used to determine the lord’s will for his people whenever he goes in before the lord.
31. “Make the robe that is worn with the ephod from a single piece of blue cloth,

34. The gold bells and pomegranates are to alternate all around the hem.
35. Aaron will wear this robe whenever he ministers before the lord, and the bells will tinkle as he goes in and out of the lord’s presence in the Holy Place. If he wears it, he will not die.

37. Attach the medallion with a blue cord to the front of Aaron’s turban, where it must remain.
