The Breastpiece
“Fashion a breastpiece for making decisions—the work of a skilled craftsman. Make it like the ephod: of gold, and of blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and of finely twisted linen.
16 It is to be square—a span long and a span wide—and folded double.
17 Then mount four rows of precious stones on it. In the first row there shall be a ruby, a topaz and a beryl;
18 in the second row a turquoise, a sapphire and an emerald;
19 in the third row a jacinth, an agate and an amethyst;
20 in the fourth row a chrysolite, an onyx and a jasper. Mount them in gold filigree settings.
21 There are to be twelve stones, one for each of the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.
22 “For the breastpiece make braided chains of pure gold, like a rope.
