Exodus 28:19

Verse 19 of 43. The 28th of 40 chapters in Exodus, in The Law.

15“You shall make a breastplate of judgment, the work of the skillful workman; like the work of the ephod you shall make it; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, you shall make it.

16It shall be square and folded double; a span shall be its length, and a span its width.

17You shall set in it settings of stones, four rows of stones: a row of ruby, topaz, and beryl shall be the first row;

18and the second row a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;

19and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

20and the fourth row a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They shall be enclosed in gold in their settings.

21The stones shall be according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, everyone according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.

22You shall make on the breastplate chains like cords, of braided work of pure gold.

23You shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold, and shall put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
