with their fasteningsz and the stones shall have the names of the twelve sous of Israel, their names eugraven like a seal; each shall have one name ef the twelve tribes. ‘ Also make for the breastplate

linked chains, ef pure gold, as a wreath. Also make for the breast plate two buttons of gold, and hx the two buttons on the two edges of the breastplate, and Bx the two wreaths of gold upon the two buttons at the edges of the breastplate, and the two ends of the two wreaths you shall fasten on to the twoasettings, and put them upon the shoulders of the ephod, upon its front face. Alsomake two buttons of gold,

and place them onlthe two sides of the breastplate, upon its edges, where the ephod turns over to its inside. Besides, you shall make buttons of gold and fix them upon the two shoulders of the ephod ,extending from the front of it tothe juncture at the top of the girdle of the ephod, and shall bind on the breastplate by its button to the hook of the ephod, so -that the breastplate shall not fall from off the ephod. Thus Aaron will carry the names of the sons of Israel, upon the breastplate of justice, upon his heart, when he goes to the Sanctuary, as a remembrance before GOD continually. ‘ Also fix on to the breastplate the

Urim and Thumim,1 so that they may be over. the heart of Aaron when he goes before the EVER-L1v1NG, and Aaron shall carry justice for the children of Israel before the EvER— L1V1NG continually. ‘Also make for the cape of the

granates of azure, and purple, and blue, and red, on the heme around, and bells of gold beside them around ; at bell of goldand a pomegranate, upon the hem of the cape around.

Make also a Flower of pure gold, 36 and engrave upon it like the engrav- ing of a seal, ‘ Holiness to the LoRD,’ and fasten to it an azure cord, that it may be held upon the turban, in the front of the turban, and be above the brow of Aaron, so that Aaron may carry their weaknesses to the Sanc- tuaries when he sanctities the children of Israel, sanctifying them with every ohering : soit shall be above his brow continually, to bring favour to them from the EVER-L1v1NG. ‘Also embroider a robe of white

linen, and make a turban of white linen, and make an embroidered sash. ‘ Make also robes for the sons of

Aaron ; and make for them sashes, and make them mitres, to honour and adorn them. And clothe with them Aaron your brother, and his sons with them. Then consecrate them, and put avring on their hands and sanctity them, and they shall be My Priests. Also make drawers for their legs, to cover their naked body from the waist, and to extend down the thighs. These shall be worn by Aaron and his sons when they go into the Tent of the Congregation, or to clothe them at the altar, when serving religion, so that they may not excite passion and die. This is a perpetual order to him, and his descendants after him. 37 39 43
