6. And they prepare the shoham stones, set, embroidered [with] gold, opened with openings of a signet, by the names of the sons of Israel;
7. and he setteth them on the shoulders of the ephod--stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
8. And he maketh the breastplate, work of a designer, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen;
9. it hath been square; double they have made the breastplate, a span its length, and a span its breadth, doubled.
10. And they fill in it four rows of stones; a row of a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle [is] the one row;
11. and the second row an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond;
12. and the third row an opal, an agate, and an amethyst;
13. and the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper--set, embroidered [with] gold, in their settings.
14. And the stones, according to the names of the sons of Israel, are twelve, according to their names, openings of a signet, each according to his name, for the twelve tribes.
15. And they make on the breastplate wreathed chains, work of thick bands, of pure gold;
16. and they make two embroidered things of gold, and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate,
17. and they put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings on the ends of the breastplate;
18. and the two ends of the two thick bands they have put on the two embroidered things, and they put them on the shoulders of the ephod, over-against its front.
