9 Then you will take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel,
10 six of their names on the one stone and the six names left, on the second stone, according to their genealogical annals.
11 With the handiwork of lapidary, as the engravings of a seal, shall you engrave the two stones with the names of the sons of Israel. You shall make them set round about with mountings of gold filigree.
12 Then you will place the two stones on the shoulderpieces of the vestment as memorial stones for the sons of Israel, and Aaron will bear their names before Yahweh on his two shoulderpieces as a reminder.
13 You will make the mountings of gold filigree,
14 with two braids of pure gold; you shall make them to be boundaries, a handiwork of rope, and you will put the braided ropes on the mountings.
15 You will make the breastplate of judgment, the handiwork of a designer; like the handiwork of the vestment shall you make it; of gold, blue, purple, double-dipped crimson and corded cambric shall you make it.
16 Squared shall it come to be when doubled, a span its length and a span its width.
17 You will fill it with a filling of stone, four rows of stones: a row of carnelian, peridot and emerald, one row,
18 and the second row of carbuncle, sapphire and diamond,
19 and the third row of jacinth, agate and amethyst,
20 and the fourth row of topaz, onyx and jasper. Mounted in gold filigree, shall they be in their fillings.
21 The stones shall come to be twelve with their names according to the names of the sons of Israel; as the engravings of a seal, each with its name, shall they come to be for the twelve tribes.
