39:1 From the blue, purple and scarlet yarn they made woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary. They also made sacred garments for Aaron, as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:2 They made the ephod of gold, and of blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and of finely twisted linen.
39:3 They hammered out thin sheets of gold and cut strands to be worked into the blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen–the work of a skilled craftsman.
39:4 They made shoulder pieces for the ephod, which were attached to two of its corners, so it could be fastened.
39:5 Its skillfully woven waistband was like it–of one piece with the ephod and made with gold, and with blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and with finely twisted linen, as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:6 They mounted the onyx stones in gold filigree settings and engraved them like a seal with the names of the sons of Israel.
39:7 Then they fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:8 They fashioned the breastpiece–the work of a skilled craftsman. They made it like the ephod: of gold, and of blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and of finely twisted linen.
39:9 It was square–a span long and a span wide–and folded double.
39:10 Then they mounted four rows of precious stones on it. In the first row there was a ruby, a topaz and a beryl;
39:11 in the second row a turquoise, a sapphire and an emerald;
39:12 in the third row a jacinth, an agate and an amethyst;
39:13 in the fourth row a chrysolite, an onyx and a jasper. They were mounted in gold filigree settings.
39:14 There were twelve stones, one for each of the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.
39:15 For the breastpiece they made braided chains of pure gold, like a rope.
39:16 They made two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and fastened the rings to two of the corners of the breastpiece.
39:17 They fastened the two gold chains to the rings at the corners of the breastpiece,
39:18 and the other ends of the chains to the two settings, attaching them to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front.
39:19 They made two gold rings and attached them to the other two corners of the breastpiece on the inside edge next to the ephod.
39:20 Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the ephod, close to the seam just above the waistband of the ephod.
39:21 They tied the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod with blue cord, connecting it to the waistband so that the breastpiece would not swing out from the ephod–as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:22 They made the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth–the work of a weaver–
39:23 with an opening in the center of the robe like the opening of a collar, and a band around this opening, so that it would not tear.
39:24 They made pomegranates of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen around the hem of the robe.
39:25 And they made bells of pure gold and attached them around the hem between the pomegranates.
39:26 The bells and pomegranates alternated around the hem of the robe to be worn for ministering, as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:27 For Aaron and his sons, they made tunics of fine linen–the work of a weaver–
39:28 and the turban of fine linen, the linen headbands and the undergarments of finely twisted linen.
39:29 The sash was of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn–the work of an embroiderer–as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:30 They made the plate, the sacred diadem, out of pure gold and engraved on it, like an inscription on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD.
39:31 Then they fastened a blue cord to it to attach it to the turban, as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:32 So all the work on the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, was completed. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:33 Then they brought the tabernacle to Moses: the tent and all its furnishings, its clasps, frames, crossbars, posts and bases;
39:34 the covering of ram skins dyed red, the covering of hides of sea cows and the shielding curtain;
39:35 the ark of the Testimony with its poles and the atonement cover;
39:36 the table with all its articles and the bread of the Presence;
39:37 the pure gold lampstand with its row of lamps and all its accessories, and the oil for the light;
39:38 the gold altar, the anointing oil, the fragrant incense, and the curtain for the entrance to the tent;
39:39 the bronze altar with its bronze grating, its poles and all its utensils; the basin with its stand;
39:40 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, and the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard; the ropes and tent pegs for the courtyard; all the furnishings for the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting;
39:41 and the woven garments worn for ministering in the sanctuary, both the sacred garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons when serving as priests.
39:42 The Israelites had done all the work just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
39:43 Moses inspected the work and saw that they had done it just as the LORD had commanded. So Moses blessed them.
39:1 And from the blue and the purple and the scarlet strands, they made finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:2 And Bezalel made the ephod of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen.
39:3 And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut them into threads, to work into the blue and into the purple and into the scarlet strands and into the fine linen, the work of a skillful workman.
39:4 They made shoulder pieces for it, joined to it; at the two edges it was joined.
39:5 And the skillfully woven band, which was on it for its fastening, was of one piece with it and like it in workmanship, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:6 And they made the onyx stones enclosed in settings of gold, engraved with the engravings of a signet according to the names of the sons of Israel.
39:7 And he put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:8 And he made the breastplate, the work of a skillful workman, like the work of the ephod, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and of fine twined linen.
39:9 It was square; they made the breastplate doubled; a span its length and a span its width when doubled.
39:10 And they filled it with four rows of stones. The first row was a row of a sardius, a topaz, and an emerald;
39:11 And the second row, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond;
39:12 And the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
39:13 And the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold in their enclosures.
39:14 And the stones were according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, each according to his name, for the twelve tribes.
39:15 And they made on the breastplate twisted chains, a corded work of pure gold.
39:16 And they made two settings of gold and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
39:17 And they put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
39:18 And the two other ends of the two cords they put on the two settings and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.
39:19 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the breastplate on its edge, which was toward the ephod on the inside.
39:20 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod on the front of it, close to the place where it is joined, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
39:21 And they bound the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue strands, that it might be upon the skillfully woven band of the ephod and that the breastplate might not come loose from the ephod, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:22 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue strands,
39:23 And the opening of the robe in its center like the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding edge around its opening so that it would not be torn.
39:24 And they made on the hem of the robe pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet strands, twined.
39:25 And they made bells of pure gold and put the bells between the pomegranates on the hem of the robe all around, between the pomegranates;
39:26 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around, to minister in; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:27 And they made the tunics of fine linen of woven work for Aaron and for his sons,
39:28 And the turban of fine linen, and the headdresses of high hats of fine linen, and the linen trousers of fine twined linen,
39:29 And the girding sash of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet strands, the work of an embroiderer, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:30 And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold and wrote an inscription upon it, like the engravings of a signet: HOLINESS TO JEHOVAH.
39:31 And they tied to it a cord of blue strands to fasten it on the turban above, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
39:32 Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting was finished, and the children of Israel did according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses; so they did.
39:33 And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings, its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars and its sockets;
39:34 And the covering of rams skins dyed red and the covering of porpoise skins, and the veil of the screen;
39:35 The Ark of the Testimony and its poles and the expiation cover;
39:36 The table, all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;
39:37 The pure lampstand, its lamps, even the lamps set in order, and all its utensils, and the oil for the light;
39:38 And the golden altar and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense and the screen for the entrance of the tent;
39:39 The bronze altar, and its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils; the laver and its base;
39:40 The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets; and the screen for the gate of the court, its cords, and its pegs; and all the utensils for the service of the tabernacle, for the Tent of Meeting;
39:41 The finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons for them to serve as priests.
39:42 According to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did all the work.
39:43 And Moses saw all the work; and there it was ? they had done it; just as Jehovah had commanded, so they had done. And Moses blessed them.
