1The workers used the blue, purple, and red yarn to make special clothes for the priest to wear when they served in the ˻Lord’s˼ holy place. They also made the special clothes for Aaron like the Lord had commanded Moses. 2They made the Ephod from gold thread, fine linen, and blue, purple, and red yarn. 3(They hammered the gold into thin strips. Then they cut the gold into long threads. And they wove the gold into the blue, purple, and red yarn and fine linen. This was the work of a very skilled person.) 4They made the shoulder pieces for the Ephod. They tied these shoulder pieces to the two corners of the Ephod. 5They wove the sash ˻(belt)˼ and fastened it to the Ephod. It was made the same way as the Ephod—they used gold thread, fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn, just like the Lord commanded Moses. 6The workers put the onyx stones ˻for the Ephod˼ in gold settings. They wrote the names of the sons of Israel on these stones. 7Then they put these jewels on the shoulder pieces of the Ephod. These jewels were to help God to remember the people of Israel. This was done like the Lord commanded Moses. 8Then they made the Judgment Pouch. It was the work of a skilled person, just like the Ephod. It was made from gold threads, fine linen, and blue, purple, and red yarn. 9The Judgment Pouch was folded in half to make a square ˻pocket˼. It was 1 span long and 1 span wide. 10Then the workers put four rows of beautiful jewels on the Judgment Pouch. The first row had a ruby, a topaz, and a beryl. 11The second row had a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald. 12The third row had a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst. 13The fourth row had a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. All these jewels were set in gold. 14There were twelve jewels on the Judgment Pouch—one jewel for each of the sons of Israel ˻(Jacob)˼. Each stone had the name of one of the sons of Israel carved onto it, like a seal. 15The workers made two chains from pure gold for the Judgment Pouch. The chains were braided like a rope. 16The workers made two gold rings and fastened them to two corners of the Judgment Pouch. And they made two gold settings ˻for the shoulder pieces˼. 17They fastened the gold chains to the rings at the corners of the Judgment Pouch. 18They fastened the other ends of the gold chains to the settings on the shoulder pieces. They fastened these to the front of the Ephod. 19Then they made two more gold rings and put them on the other two corners of the Judgment Pouch. This was on the inside edge of the Judgment Pouch next to the Ephod. 20They also put two gold rings on the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the Ephod. These rings were near the fastener, just above the sash ˻(belt)˼. 21Then they used a blue ribbon and tied the rings of the Judgment Pouch to the rings of the Ephod. In this way the Judgment Pouch would rest close to the sash and would be held tight against the Ephod. They did everything just like the Lord commanded. 22Then they made the robe for the Ephod. They made it from blue cloth. It was woven by a skilled worker. 23They made a hole in the center of the robe and sewed a piece of cloth around the edge of this hole. This cloth kept the hole from tearing. 24Then they used fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn to make the ˻cloth˼ pomegranates. They hung these pomegranates around the bottom edge of the robe. 25Then they made bells from pure gold. They hung these bells around the bottom edge of the robe between the pomegranates. 26Around the bottom edge of the robe there were bells and pomegranates. There was a bell between each pomegranate. This robe was for the priest to wear when he served the Lord, just like the Lord commanded Moses. 27Skilled workers wove shirts for Aaron and his sons. These shirts were made from fine linen. 28And the workers made a turban from fine linen. They also used fine linen to make head bands and underclothes. 29Then they made the sash ˻(belt)˼ from fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn. Designs were sewn into the cloth. These things were made like the Lord had commanded Moses. 30Then they made the strip of gold for the holy crown. They made it from pure gold. They wrote words into the gold. They wrote these words: holy to the lord. 31They fastened the gold strip to a blue ribbon. Then they tied the blue ribbon around the turban like the Lord had commanded Moses. 32So all the work on the Holy Tent, that is, the Meeting Tent was finished. The people of Israel did everything exactly like the Lord had commanded Moses. 33Then they showed the Holy Tent to Moses. They showed him the Tent and all the things in it. They showed him the rings, the frames, the braces, the posts, and the bases. 34They showed him the covering of the Tent that was made from ram skins dyed red. And they showed him the covering that was made from fine leather. And they showed him the curtain that covered ˻the entrance to the Most Holy Place˼. 35They showed Moses the Box of the Agreement. They showed him the poles used for carrying the Box and they showed him the cover for the Box. 36They showed him the table with everything on it and the special bread. 37They showed him the pure gold lampstand and the lamps on it. And they showed him the oil and all the other things that were used with the lamps. 38They showed Moses the gold altar, the anointing oil, the sweet-smelling incense, and the curtain that covered the entrance to the Tent. 39They showed him the bronze altar and the bronze screen. They showed him the poles used for carrying the altar. And they showed him all the things that were used on the altar. They showed him the bowl and the base under the bowl. 40They showed Moses the wall of curtains around the courtyard with the posts and bases. They showed him the curtain that covered the entrance to the courtyard. They showed him the ropes and the tent pegs. They showed him all the things in the Holy Tent, that is, the Meeting Tent. 41Then they showed Moses the clothes that were made for the priests serving in the holy area. They showed him the special clothes for Aaron the priest and his sons. These were clothes for them to wear when they served as priests. 42The people of Israel did all this work exactly like the Lord had commanded Moses. 43Moses looked closely at all the work. Moses saw that the work was done exactly like the Lord had commanded. So Moses blessed them.
