Shemot 28:10-20 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

10. Shisha of their Shemot on one even (stone), and the other Shemot of the shisha remaining on the other even (stone), according to toldot (in the order in which they were born).

11. With the work of a charash even (engraver in gemstones), like the engravings of a chotam (signet ring), shalt thou engrave the two avanim with the Shemot Bnei Yisroel; thou shalt make them to be set in mishbetzot zahav (filigrees of gold).

12. And thou shalt fasten the two avanim upon the Kitfot HaEphod for avnei zikaron (memorial stones) unto the Bnei Yisroel; and Aharon shall bear their Shemot before Hashem upon his two ketefayim for a zikaron.

13. And thou shalt make mishbetzot zahav (filigrees of gold);

14. And two sharsherot zahav tahor (chains of pure gold) at the edges; of braided artistic work shalt thou make them, and fasten the braided sharsherot (chains) to the mishbetzot (filigrees).

15. And thou shalt make the Choshen Mishpat with artistic work; like the work of the Ephod thou shalt make it; of zahav, of turquoise, and of purple, and of scarlet wool, and of twisted linen, shalt thou make it.

16. Ravu'a (foursquare, square) it shall be folded; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the width thereof.

17. And thou shalt set in it settings of even (stone), four rows of gemstones: the first row shall be a odem, a pitdah, and barekes: this shall be the first row.

18. And the second row shall be nofech, sapphire, and yahalom.

19. And the third row a leshem, shevo, and achlamah.

20. And the fourth row tarshish, shoham, and yashfeh; they shall be set in zahav in their settings.
