Exodus 28:31-35

New International Version - UK

Other priestly garments

³¹ ‘Make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth, ³² with an opening for the head in its centre. There shall be a woven edge like a collar^[a] around this opening, so that it will not tear. ³³ Make pomegranates of blue, purple and scarlet yarn around the hem of the robe, with gold bells between them. ³⁴ The gold bells and the pomegranates are to alternate round the hem of the robe. ³⁵ Aaron must wear it when he ministers. The sound of the bells will be heard when he enters the Holy Place before the Lord and when he comes out, so that he will not die.
