8. And he made the breastplate of artistic work, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus.
9. It was square; double did they make the breastplate, a span the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, doubled.
10. And they set in it four rows of stones: one row, a sardoin, a topaz, and an emerald--the first row;
11. and the second row, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond;
12. and the third row, an opal, an agate, and an amethyst;
13. and the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper; mounted in enclosures of gold in their settings.
14. And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, engraved as a seal, every one according to his name, for the twelve tribes.
15. And they made on the breastplate chains of laced work of wreathen work, of pure gold.
