1All the gold that was employed for the works according to all the fabrication of the holy things, was of the gold of the offerings, twenty-nine talents, and seven hundred and twenty shekels according to the holy shekel.
1Of the blue, purple, and scarlet, they made finely worked garments for ministering in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

8He made the breastplate, the work of a skillful workman, like the work of the ephod: of gold, of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen.
9and the bases of the court round about, and the bases of the gate of the court, and the pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court round about;
9It was square. They made the breastplate double. Its length was a span, and its width a span, being double.
10and the brazen appendage of the altar, and all the vessels of the altar, and all the instruments of the tabernacle of witness.
10They set in it four rows of stones. A row of ruby, topaz, and beryl was the first row;
11And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses, so did they.
11and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;
12And of the gold that remained of the offering they made vessels to minister with before the Lord.
12and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13And the blue that was left, and the purple, and the scarlet they made [into] garments of ministry for Aaron, so that he should minister with them in the sanctuary;
13and the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in gold settings.
14and they brought the garments to Moses, and the tabernacle, and its furniture, its bases and its bars and the posts;
14The stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, everyone according to his name, for the twelve tribes.
15and the ark of the covenant, and its bearers, and the altar and all its furniture.
15They made on the breastplate chains like cords, of braided work of pure gold.
16And they made the anointing oil, and the incense of composition, and the pure candlestick,
16They made two settings of gold, and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
17and its lamps, lamps for burning, and oil for the light,
17They put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
18and the table of show bread, and all its furniture, and the show bread upon it,
18The other two ends of the two braided chains they put on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod, in its front.
19and the garments of the sanctuary which belong to Aaron, and the garments of his sons, for the priestly ministry;
19They made two rings of gold, and put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its edge, which was toward the side of the ephod inward.
20and the curtains of the court, and the posts, and the veil of the door of the tabernacle, and the gate of the court,
20They made two more rings of gold, and put them on the two shoulder straps of the ephod underneath, in its front, close by its coupling, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
21and all the vessels of the tabernacle and all its instruments: and the skins, even rams' skins dyed red, and the blue coverings, and the coverings of the other things, and the pins, and all the instruments for the works of the tabernacle of witness.
21They bound the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it might be on the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not come loose from the ephod, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
22Whatsoever things the Lord appointed Moses, so did the children of Israel make all the furniture.
22He made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.
23And Moses saw all the works; and they had done them all as the Lord commanded Moses, so had they made them; and Moses blessed them.
23The opening of the robe in the middle of it was like the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding around its opening, that it should not be torn.
