You shall mount on it four rows of stones; the first row shall be a row of ruby, topaz and emerald;

And they mounted four rows of stones on it. The first row was a row of ruby, topaz, and emerald;

“The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it,
Nor can it be valued in pure gold.

“You were in Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your covering:
The ruby, the topaz and the diamond;
The beryl, the onyx and the jasper;
The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets,
Was in you.
On the day that you were created
They were prepared.
