The onyx stones were prepared ,
enclosed in settings of gold filigree and engraved like the engravings of a signet ,
according to the names of the sons of Israel .
*
And he set them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod ,
to be stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel ;
as the LORD had commanded Moses .
*
He made the breastpiece ,
in skilled work ,
like the work of the ephod ,
of gold ,
blue and purple and scarlet stuff ,
and fine twined linen .
*
It was square ;
the breastpiece was made double ,
a span its length and a span its breadth when doubled .
*
And they set in it four rows of stones .
A row of sardius ,
topaz ,
and carbuncle was the first row ;
*
and the second row ,
an emerald ,
a sapphire ,
and a diamond ;
*
and the third row ,
a jacinth ,
an agate ,
and an amethyst ;
*
and the fourth row ,
a beryl ,
an onyx ,
and a jasper ;
they were enclosed in settings of gold filigree .
*
There were twelve stones with their names according to the names of the sons of Israel ;
they were like signets ,
each engraved with its name ,
for the twelve tribes .
