1 你要从以色列人中,使你的哥哥亚伦和他的儿子拿答、亚比户、以利亚撒、以他玛一同就近你,给我供祭司的职分。

2 你要给你哥哥亚伦衣为荣耀,为华美。

3 又要吩咐一切中有智慧的,就是我用智慧的灵所充满的,给亚伦衣服,使他分别为,可以给我供祭司的职分。

4 所要做的就是胸牌、以弗得、外袍、杂色的内袍、冠冕、腰带,使你哥哥亚伦和他儿子穿这服,可以给我供祭司的职分。

5 要用线和蓝色紫色、朱红色线,并细麻去做。

6 他们要拿线和蓝色紫色、朱红色线,并捻的细麻,用巧匠的手工做以弗得。

7 以弗得当有两条带,接上两头,使他相连。

8 其上巧工织的带子,要和以弗得一样的做法,用以束上,与以弗得接连一块,要用线和蓝色紫色、朱红色线,并捻的细麻做成。

9 要取两块红玛瑙,在上面刻以色列儿子名字

11 要用刻宝的手工,彷佛刻图书,按着以色列儿子名字,刻这两块宝,要镶在槽上。

12 要将这两块宝安在以弗得的两条带上,为以色列人纪念亚伦要在两上担他们的名字,在耶和华面前作为纪念

13 要用子做二槽,

14 又拿精,用拧工彷佛拧绳子,做两条炼子,把这拧成的炼子搭在槽上。

15 你要用巧匠的手工做一个决断的胸牌。要和以弗得一样的做法:用线和蓝色紫色、朱红色线,并捻的细麻做成。

16 这胸牌要四方的,叠为两层,长一虎口,宽一虎口。

28 要用蓝细带子把胸牌的子与以弗得的子系住,使胸牌贴在以弗得巧工织的带子上,不可与以弗得离缝。

29 亚伦所的时候,要将决断胸牌,就是刻着以色列儿子名字的,带在胸前,在耶和华面前常作纪念

30 又要将乌陵和土明放在决断的胸牌里;亚伦进到耶和华面前的时候,要带在胸前,在耶和华面前常将以色列人的决断牌带在胸前。

31 你要做以弗得的外袍,颜色全是蓝的。

32 袍上要为留一领的周围织出领边来,彷佛铠甲的领,免得破裂。

33 袍子周围底边上要用蓝色紫色、朱红色线做石榴。在袍子周围的石榴中间要有铃铛:

34 一个铃铛一个石榴,一个铃铛一个石榴,在袍子周围的底边上。

35 亚伦供职的时候要穿这袍子。他进所到耶和华面前,以及出的时候,袍上的响声必被见,使他不至於亡。

36 你要用精做一面牌,在上面按刻图书之法刻着归耶和华

37 要用一条蓝细带子将牌系在冠冕的前面。

38 这牌必在亚伦的额上,亚伦要担当干犯物条例的罪孽;这物是以色列人在一切的礼物上所分别为的。这牌要常在他的额上,使他们可以在耶和华面前蒙悦纳。

39 要用杂色细麻线织内袍,用细麻布做冠冕,又用绣花的手工做腰带。

40 你要为亚伦的儿子做内袍、腰带、裹头巾,为荣耀,为华美。

41 要把这些给你的哥哥亚伦和他的儿子穿戴,又要他们,将他们分别为,好给我供祭司的职分。

42 要给他们做细麻布裤子,遮掩下体;裤子当从腰达到大腿

43 亚伦和他儿子进入会幕,或就,在所供职的时候必穿上,免得担罪而。这要为亚伦和他的裔作永远的定例。

It shall be square when doubled, 1 a span the length of it, and a span the breadth of it. And you shall adorn it with settings of stones. 2 There shall be four rows of stones, the order being, A ruby, a topaz, a carbuncle - one row; and the second row, A chrysoprase, a sapphire, and a diamond; and the third row, A lapis lazuli, an agate, and an amethyst; and the fourth row, A tarshish, 3 and a shoham, 4 and a jasper. Enclosed in gold shall they be in their settings. And the stones shall be according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve according to their names; with the engravings of a signet, each according to its name, they shall be for the twelve tribes. And you shall make on the breastplate small chains on the border 5 with the work of slender rope, 6 from pure gold. And you shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
