Exodus 28:6-14 - The Ephod

⁶ And they shall make the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, scarlet, and fine twined bleached linen, skilled work. ⁷ It shall have the two shoulder-pieces of it joined at the two edges of it. And so it shall be joined together. ⁸ And the embroidered girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work of it: of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined bleached linen.

⁹ And you shall take two onyx stones, and you shall engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel. ¹⁰ Six of their names shall be on one stone, and six of the remaining names on the other stone, according to their birth. ¹¹ With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, you shall engrave the two stones with the names of the sons of Israel. You shall make them to be set in settings of gold. ¹² And you shall put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial to the sons of Israel. And Aaron shall bear their names before Jehovah upon his two shoulders for a memorial. ¹³ And you shall make plaited work of gold, ¹⁴ and two chains of pure gold at the ends. You shall make them of woven work, a work of cord, and fasten the woven chains to the plaited work.
