Exodus 28:1-14

Exodus 28:1-14

[1] And take  thou unto thee Aaron  thy brother,  and his sons  with him, from among  the children  of Israel,  that he may minister unto me in the priest's office,  even Aaron,  Nadab  and Abihu,  Eleazar  and Ithamar,  Aaron's  sons.  [2] And thou shalt make  holy  garments  for Aaron  thy brother  for glory  and for beauty.  [3] And thou shalt speak  unto all that are wise  hearted,  whom I have filled  with the spirit  of wisdom,  that they may make  Aaron's  garments  to consecrate  him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.  [4] And these are the garments  which they shall make;  a breastplate,  and an ephod,  and a robe,  and a broidered  coat,  a mitre,  and a girdle:  and they shall make  holy  garments  for Aaron  thy brother,  and his sons,  that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.  [5] And they shall take  gold,  and blue,  and purple,  and scarlet,  and fine linen.  [6] And they shall make  the ephod  of gold,  of blue,  and of purple,  of scarlet,  and fine twined  linen,  with cunning  work.  [7] It shall have the two  shoulderpieces  thereof joined  at the two  edges  thereof; and so it shall be joined together.  [8] And the curious girdle  of the ephod,  which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work  thereof; even of gold,  of blue,  and purple,  and scarlet,  and fine twined  linen.  [9] And thou shalt take  two  onyx  stones,  and grave  on them the names  of the children  of Israel:  [10] Six  of their names  on one  stone,  and the other six  names  of the rest  on the other  stone,  according to their birth.  [11] With the work  of an engraver  in stone,  like the engravings  of a signet,  shalt thou engrave  the two  stones  with the names  of the children  of Israel:  thou shalt make  them to be set  in ouches  of gold.  [12] And thou shalt put  the two  stones  upon the shoulders  of the ephod  for stones  of memorial  unto the children  of Israel:  and Aaron  shall bear  their names  before  the LORD  upon his two  shoulders  for a memorial.  [13] And thou shalt make  ouches  of gold;  [14] And two  chains  of pure  gold  at the ends;  of wreathen  work  shalt thou make  them, and fasten  the wreathen  chains  to the ouches.
