Exodus 39:1-21 ▼

1 Of the yalowe sylke, scarlet, & purple, they made Aarons mynistringe vestimentes, to do seruyce in the Sanctuary, as ye LORDE comaunded Moses.

2 And he made the ouer body cote, of golde, yalowe sylke, scarlet, purple, & whyte twyned sylke,

3 and bett the golde in to thinne plates, and cut it in to wyres, that it might be wrought amonge the yalowe sylke, scarlet, purple and whyte sylke,

4 & made it so, that ye ouerbody cote came together by the edges on both the sydes.

5 And his gyrdel was after the same craft & worke: eue of golde, yalowe sylke, scarlet, purple and whyte twyned sylke, as the LORDE commaunded Moses.

6 And they wrought two Onix stones, set rounde aboute with golde, grauen by the stone grauer with the names of the childre of Israel:

7 and fastened them vpo the shulders of the ouerbody cote, that they might be stones of remebraunce vnto the children of Israel, as the LORDE comaunded Moses.

8 And they made the brestlappe after the craft & worke of the ouerbody cote: of golde, yalowe sylke, scarlet, purple, & whyte twyned sylke,

9 so that it was foure square & dubble, an hande bredth longe and brode,

10 and fylled it with foure rowes of stones. The first rowe was: a Sardis, a Topas, and a Smaragde.

11 The secode: a Ruby, a Saphyre, and a Dyamonde.

12 The thirde: a Ligurios, an Achat, and an Amatist.

13 The fourth: a Turcas, an Onix & a Iaspis: closed rounde aboute with golde in all the rowes.

14 And the stones stode after the twolue names of the children of Israel, grauen by the stone grauer, euery one with his name, acordinge to the twolue trybes.

15 And vpon the brestlappe they made wrythen cheynes of pure golde,

16 and two hokes of golde, & two golde rynges, and fastened the two rynges vpon the two edges of the brestlappe:

17 and ye two wrythen cheynes put they in the two rynges vpon the corners of the brestlappe.

18 But the two endes of ye wrethen cheynes put they to the two hokes, & fastened them vpon the corners of the ouerbody cote, one ouer agaynst another.

19 And they made two other rynges of golde, & fastened them to the other two corners of the brestlappe by the edge of it, that it might hange vpon the out syde of the ouerbody cote.

20 And they made yet two other golde rynges, which they put beneth vpon the two corners of the ouerbody cote, one ouer agaynst another, where the ouerbody cote ioyneth together,

21 that the brestlappe might be festened by his rynges vnto ye rynges of the ouerbody cote with a yalowe lace, that it might lye close vpon ye ouerbody cote, and not be lowsed from ye ouerbody cote, as the LORDE commaunded Moses.
