1 And thou shalt take unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may be a priest unto me, Aaron and Nadab, and Abihu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron.

2 And thou shalt make sacred garments unto Aaron thy brother, for glory and splendor.

3 And tell all the wise hearts whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom [and understanding] to make for Aaron [sacred] garments for his dedication, that he may be a priest unto me.

4 These are the garments which they shall make: the breastplate, the ephod, the outer garment, the tunic of the contraction, the tether, and the girdle. Let them make sacred garments for Aaron your brother and for his sons, that he may be a priest for me.

5 And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen,

6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and of fine woven linen, with workmanship.

7 He shall have two bound bands at both ends of him, that he may be bound.

8 And the girdle of the ephod that is over it shall be of the same workmanship as it, of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and of fine woven linen.

9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and engrave upon them the names of the children of Israel;

10 Their six names are on the one stone, and the six names of the rest on the other stone, according to the order of their birth.

11 By the carver of the stone that carves the seals, you shall engrave on the two stones the names of the children of Israel. and put them in golden sockets

12 And thou shalt put these two stones on the shoulders of the ephod: these are stones in remembrance to the children of Israel; and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD on both his shoulders for remembrance.

13 And thou shalt make nests of gold;

14 And thou shalt make two chains of pure gold, and make them twisted, and fasten the twisted chains to the sockets.
