Exodus 39: 4 They made shoulder-pieces for it, joined together; at the two ends was it joined together.
Exodus 39: 5 And the skilfully woven band, that was upon it, wherewith to gird it on, was of the same piece and like the work thereof: of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Exodus 39: 6 And they wrought the onyx stones, inclosed in settings of gold, graven with the engravings of a signet, according to the names of the children of Israel.

Exodus 39: 8 And he made the breastplate, the work of the skilful workman, like the work of the ephod: of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
Exodus 39: 9 It was four-square; they made the breastplate double; a span was the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being double.
Exodus 39: 10 And they set in it four rows of stones: a row of carnelian, topaz, and smaragd was the first row.
