Exo 28:1 And take thou vnto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sonnes with him from among the children of Israel, that Aaron may minister vnto me in the priestes office, Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aarons sonnes. Exo 28:2 And thou shalt make holy rayment for Aaron thy brother, glorious and beautifull. Exo 28:3 And thou shalt speake vnto all that are wise hearted, whom I haue filled with the spirite of wisdome, that they make Aarons rayment to consecrate him, that he may minister vnto me in the priestes office. Exo 28:4 These are the garmentes which they shall make, a brestlap and an ephod, a tunicle, a brodered coate, a miter, and a girdle, these holy garmentes shall they make for Aaron thy brother and his sonnes, that they may minister vnto me in the priestes office. Exo 28:5 And let them take golde, blewe silke, purple, scarlet, and whyte twined silke, Exo 28:6 They shall make the ephod of golde, blewe silke, purple, scarlet, and whyte twined silke, with brodered worke. Exo 28:7 The two sides shall come together, and be closed vp in the two edges therof. Exo 28:8 And the girdle of the ephod shalbe of the same workmanship, and of the same stuffe, euen of golde, blewe silke, purple, scarlet, and whyte twined silke. Exo 28:9 And thou shalt take two Onyx stones, and graue in them the names of the children of Israel. Exo 28:10 Sixe names of them in the one stone, and the other sixe in the other stone, accordyng to their birth. Exo 28:11 After the worke of a stone grauer and of him that graueth signettes, shalt thou graue the two stones, with the names of the children of Israel, and shalt make them to be set in ouches of golde. Exo 28:12 And thou shalt put the two stones vpon the two shoulders of the ephod [that they may be] stones of remembraunce vnto the children of Israel: and Aaron shal beare their names before the Lord vpon his two shoulders for a remembraunce. Exo 28:13 And thou shalt make ouches of golde: Exo 28:14 And two chaynes of fine golde of a certayne length, linke worke & wreathed, and fasten the wreathed chaynes to the ouches. Exo 28:15 And thou shalt make the brestlap of iudgement with brodered worke: euen after the worke of the ephod thou shalt make it [namely] of golde, blewe silke, purple, scarlet, and whyte twined silke. Exo 28:16 Foure square it shalbe and double, an hande bredth long, and an hande bredth brode. Exo 28:17 And thou shalt fill it with foure rowes of stones: in the first rowe shalbe a Sardius, a Topas, and Smaragdus. Exo 28:18 In the seconde rowe, a Rubi, Saphir, and Diamonde. Exo 28:19 In the thirde a Lyncurius, an Achat, and an Ametyst. Exo 28:20 In the fourth a Turcas, an Onyx, and a Iaspis: and they shalbe set in golde in their inclosers. Exo 28:21 And the stones shalbe grauen, as signettes be grauen with the names of the children of Israel, euen with twelue names, euery one with his name accordyng to the twelue tribes. Exo 28:22 And thou shalt make vpon the brestlap two fastenyng chaynes of pure golde and wreathen worke. Exo 28:23 And thou shalt make likewise vpon the brestlap two ringes of golde, and put them on the edges of the brestlap. Exo 28:24 And put the two wreathen chaynes of golde in the two ringes which are in the edges of the brestlap. Exo 28:25 And the other two endes of the chaines thou shalt fasten in two close ouches, and put them vpon the shoulders of the ephod on the foreside of it. Exo 28:26 And thou shalt yet make two ringes of golde, which thou shalt put in the two edges of the brestlap [euen] in the borders therof, towarde the inside of the ephod ouer agaynst it. Exo 28:27 And yet two [other] ringes of gold thou shalt make, and put them on the two sides of ye Ephod beneath ouer agaynst the brestlap, alowe where the sides are ioyned together vpon the brodered gyrdle of the Ephod. Exo 28:28 And they shall bynde the brestlap by his ringes, vnto ye ringes of the Ephod, with a lase of blewe silke, that it may lye close aboue the brodered gyrdle of the Ephod, and that the brestlap be not loosed from the Ephod. Exo 28:29 And Aaron shall beare the names of the children of Israel in the brestlap of iudgement vpon his heart, when he goeth into the holy place, for a remembraunce before the Lorde alway. Exo 28:30 And thou shalt put in the brestlap of iudgment the Urim & the Thummim, and they shalbe [euen] vpo Aarons heart whe he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall beare the iudgement of the children of Israel vpon his heart before the Lorde alway. Exo 28:31 And thou shalt make the tunicle vnto the Ephod, altogether of blewe silke. Exo 28:32 And there shalbe an hole for the head in the middest of it, hauyng a bonde of wouen worke rounde about the coller of it, as it were the coller of a partlet, that it rent not. Exo 28:33 And beneath vpon the hem, thou shalt make pomgranates of blewe sylke, and of purple, and of scarlet, rounde about the hem, and belles of gold betweene them rounde about. Exo 28:34 And let there be euer a golden bell and a pomgranate: a golden bell and a pomgranate rounde about vpon the hem of the tunicle. Exo 28:35 And Aaron shall haue it vpon hym when he ministreth, and the sound shalbe hearde when he goeth into the holy place before the Lorde, & when he commeth out: and he shall not dye. Exo 28:36 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and graue theron as signettes are grauen, the holynes of the Lorde. Exo 28:37 And put it on a blewe sylke lase to be vpon the mytre, euen vpon the forefront of it. Exo 28:38 And it shalbe vpon Aarons forehead, that Aaron may beare the sinne of the holy thinges, whiche the children of Israel halowe in all their holy gyftes: and it shalbe alwayes vpon his forehead, for the reconciling of them before the Lorde. Exo 28:39 And thou shalt make a coate of white sylke, embrodered with knottes, & thou shalt make a mytre of whyte sylke, and a gyrdle of needle worke. Exo 28:40 And thou shalt make for Aarons sonnes also coates, and thou shalt make for them gyrdles, & bonettes shalt thou make for them, glorious and bewtiful. Exo 28:41 And thou shalt put them vpon Aaron thy brother, & on his sonnes with hym, and shalt annoynt them, and fill their handes, & sanctifie them, that they may minister vnto me in the priestes office. Exo 28:42 And thou shalt make them lynnen sloppes to couer their priuities: fro the loynes vnto ye thighes they shal reache. Exo 28:43 And they shalbe vpon Aaron and his sonnes when they come into the tabercle of the congregatio, or whe they come vnto the aulter to minister in holines: that they beare no sinne, & so dye. And it shalbe a lawe for euer vnto Aaron, and his seede after him.
