1. `And thou, bring thou near unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from the midst of the sons of Israel, for his being priest to Me, [even] Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, sons of Aaron;
2. and thou hast made holy garments for Aaron thy brother, for honour and for beauty;
3. and thou--thou dost speak unto all the wise of heart, whom I have filled [with] a spirit of wisdom, and they have made the garments of Aaron to sanctify him for his being priest to Me.
4. `And these [are] the garments which they make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and an upper robe, and an embroidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle; yea, they have made holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and for his sons, for his being priest to Me.
5. `And they take the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the linen,
6. and have made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, work of a designer;
7. it hath two shoulders joining at its two ends, and it is joined.
8. `And the girdle of his ephod which [is] on him, according to its work, is of the same, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.
9. `And thou hast taken the two shoham stones, and hast opened on them the names of the sons of Israel;
10. six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the remaining six on the second stone, according to their births;
11. the work of an engraver in stone, openings of a signet, thou dost open the two stones by the names of the sons of Israel; turned round, embroidered [with] gold, thou dost make them.
12. `And thou hast set the two stones on the shoulders of the ephod--stones of memorial to the sons of Israel--and Aaron hath borne their names before Jehovah, on his two shoulders, for a memorial.
