10 They mounted four rows of gemstones on it. The first row contained a red carnelian, a pale-green peridot, and an emerald.

11 The second row contained a turquoise, a blue lapis lazuli, and a white moonstone.

12 The third row contained an orange jacinth, an agate, and a purple amethyst.

13 The fourth row contained a blue-green beryl, an onyx, and a green jasper. All these stones were set in gold filigree.

14 Each stone represented one of the twelve sons of Israel, and the name of that tribe was engraved on it like a seal.
