出埃及記 39
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
祭司的衣服
39 比撒列按照耶和華對摩西的吩咐,用藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線精工製作在聖所供職時穿的禮服,又為亞倫製作聖衣。 2 用金線和細麻線及藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線精工製作以弗得, 3 把金子打成薄片,剪成細線,與細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線巧妙地織在一起。 4 他做了兩條肩帶,固定在以弗得兩邊,用來連接以弗得。 5 又按耶和華對摩西的吩咐,照以弗得的做法用金線和細麻線及藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線精工製作腰帶,縫在以弗得上。 6 他選了兩塊紅瑪瑙,用刻圖章的方法刻上以色列十二個兒子的名字,鑲在兩個金框裡, 7 再縫在以弗得的兩條肩帶上,作以色列人的紀念石。這些都是照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。
8 他精工製作胸牌,與以弗得一樣用金線和細麻線及藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成。 9 胸牌呈正方形,疊成兩層,長寬各二十二釐米。 10 上面鑲上四行寶石:第一行是紅寶石、黃玉和翠玉; 11 第二行是綠寶石、藍寶石和金剛石; 12 第三行是紫瑪瑙、白瑪瑙和紫晶; 13 第四行是水蒼玉、紅瑪瑙和碧玉。以上四行寶石都鑲在胸牌的金框內。 14 他用刻圖章的方法,在十二顆寶石上刻上以色列兒子的名字,代表以色列的十二支派。
15 他用純金擰成兩條像繩子一樣的鏈子,連在胸牌上, 16 又造兩個金框和兩個金環,把金環安在胸牌兩端。 17 把兩條金鏈分別穿在兩個金環裡, 18 又把兩條金鏈的另一端分別連在以弗得前面肩帶的兩個金框上。 19 在靠近以弗得內側、胸牌下面的兩端造了兩個金環。 20 在以弗得肩帶下端、接近腰帶的地方又造了兩個金環。 21 用一條藍色的帶子繫住以弗得和胸牌上面的金環,使胸牌貼在精工織成的以弗得腰帶上,不會從以弗得上鬆脫。這些都是照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。
22 以弗得的外袍用純藍色的線織成, 23 上面有領口,領口上織領邊,像鎧甲上的領口一樣,免得領口破裂。 24 外袍的底邊用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線做成石榴狀的飾物, 25 又造純金的鈴鐺掛在外袍底邊的石榴間, 26 一個石榴一個金鈴鐺,相間排列,圍在外袍的底邊。這件外袍是祭司供職時穿的,正如耶和華對摩西的吩咐。
27 他用細麻布為亞倫父子們縫製內袍、 28 禮冠、頭巾和褲子, 29 還用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線繡製腰帶。這是照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。 30 又用純金造了牌子,就是聖冠,上面用刻圖章的方法刻上「奉獻給耶和華」的字樣, 31 然後用一條藍色的帶子把這個牌子繫在禮冠上。這些都是照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。
聖幕完工
32 聖幕,就是會幕的工作就這樣全部完成了,都是以色列人照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。 33 他們把聖幕和各樣器具都送到摩西那裡,即鉤子、木板、橫閂、柱子、帶凹槽的底座; 34 海狗皮頂蓋、遮掩約櫃的幔子、染成紅色的公羊皮蓋; 35 約櫃、抬約櫃的橫杠、施恩座; 36 桌子、桌上的一切器具和供餅; 37 純金的燈臺、燈盞、燈臺的一切器具、燈油; 38 金壇、膏油、芬芳的香;會幕的門簾; 39 銅祭壇、祭壇的銅網、抬祭壇的橫杠、祭壇用的一切器具、洗濯盆和盆座; 40 院子的帷幔、柱子、帶凹槽的底座、院子入口的門簾、繩子、橛子和會幕,即聖幕所需的一切器具; 41 在聖所供職時穿的精製禮服、亞倫祭司的聖衣及其眾子供祭司之職時穿的衣服。 42 這一切都是以色列人照耶和華對摩西的吩咐做的。 43 摩西察看這一切工作,見他們都是按照耶和華的吩咐做的,就給他們祝福。
Exodus 39
New Living Translation
Clothing for the Priests
39 The craftsmen made beautiful sacred garments of blue, purple, and scarlet cloth—clothing for Aaron to wear while ministering in the Holy Place, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Ephod
2 Bezalel[a] made the ephod of finely woven linen and embroidered it with gold and with blue, purple, and scarlet thread. 3 He made gold thread by hammering out thin sheets of gold and cutting it into fine strands. With great skill and care, he worked it into the fine linen with the blue, purple, and scarlet thread.
4 The ephod consisted of two pieces, front and back, joined at the shoulders with two shoulder-pieces. 5 The decorative sash was made of the same materials: finely woven linen embroidered with gold and with blue, purple, and scarlet thread, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. 6 They mounted the two onyx stones in settings of gold filigree. The stones were engraved with the names of the tribes of Israel, just as a seal is engraved. 7 He fastened these stones on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod as a reminder that the priest represents the people of Israel. All this was done just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Chestpiece
8 Bezalel made the chestpiece with great skill and care. He made it to match the ephod, using finely woven linen embroidered with gold and with blue, purple, and scarlet thread. 9 He made the chestpiece of a single piece of cloth folded to form a pouch nine inches[b] square. 10 They mounted four rows of gemstones[c] on it. The first row contained a red carnelian, a pale-green peridot, and an emerald. 11 The second row contained a turquoise, a blue lapis lazuli, and a white moonstone. 12 The third row contained an orange jacinth, an agate, and a purple amethyst. 13 The fourth row contained a blue-green beryl, an onyx, and a green jasper. All these stones were set in gold filigree. 14 Each stone represented one of the twelve sons of Israel, and the name of that tribe was engraved on it like a seal.
15 To attach the chestpiece to the ephod, they made braided cords of pure gold thread. 16 They also made two settings of gold filigree and two gold rings and attached them to the top corners of the chestpiece. 17 They tied the two gold cords to the rings on the chestpiece. 18 They tied the other ends of the cords to the gold settings on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod. 19 Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the inside edges of the chestpiece next to the ephod. 20 Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the front of the ephod, below the shoulder-pieces, just above the knot where the decorative sash was fastened to the ephod. 21 They attached the bottom rings of the chestpiece to the rings on the ephod with blue cords. In this way, the chestpiece was held securely to the ephod above the decorative sash. All this was done just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Additional Clothing for the Priests
22 Bezalel made the robe that is worn with the ephod from a single piece of blue woven cloth, 23 with an opening for Aaron’s head in the middle of it. The opening was reinforced with a woven collar[d] so it would not tear. 24 They made pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and attached them to the hem of the robe. 25 They also made bells of pure gold and placed them between the pomegranates along the hem of the robe, 26 with bells and pomegranates alternating all around the hem. This robe was to be worn whenever the priest ministered before the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
27 They made tunics for Aaron and his sons from fine linen cloth. 28 The turban and the special head coverings were made of fine linen, and the undergarments were also made of finely woven linen. 29 The sashes were made of finely woven linen and embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet thread, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30 Finally, they made the sacred medallion—the badge of holiness—of pure gold. They engraved it like a seal with these words: Holy to the lord. 31 They attached the medallion with a blue cord to Aaron’s turban, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Moses Inspects the Work
32 And so at last the Tabernacle[e] was finished. The Israelites had done everything just as the Lord had commanded Moses. 33 And they brought the entire Tabernacle to Moses:
the sacred tent with all its furnishings, clasps, frames, crossbars, posts, and bases;
34 the tent coverings of tanned ram skins and fine goatskin leather;
the inner curtain to shield the Ark;
35 the Ark of the Covenant[f] and its carrying poles;
the Ark’s cover—the place of atonement;
36 the table and all its utensils;
the Bread of the Presence;
37 the pure gold lampstand with its symmetrical lamp cups, all its accessories, and the olive oil for lighting;
38 the gold altar;
the anointing oil and fragrant incense;
the curtain for the entrance of the sacred tent;
39 the bronze altar;
the bronze grating and its carrying poles and utensils;
the washbasin with its stand;
40 the curtains for the walls of the courtyard;
the posts and their bases;
the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard;
the ropes and tent pegs;
all the furnishings to be used in worship at the Tabernacle;
41 the beautifully stitched garments for the priests to wear while ministering in the Holy Place—the sacred garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons to wear as they minister as priests.
42 So the people of Israel followed all of the Lord’s instructions to Moses. 43 Then Moses inspected all their work. When he found it had been done just as the Lord had commanded him, he blessed them.
Exodus 39
New King James Version
Making the Garments of the Priesthood(A)
39 Of the (B)blue, purple, and scarlet thread they made (C)garments[a] of ministry, for ministering in the [b]holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, (D)as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Ephod
2 (E)He made the (F)ephod of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen. 3 And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut it into threads, to work it in with the blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and the fine linen, into artistic designs. 4 They made shoulder straps for it to couple it together; it was coupled together at its two edges. 5 And the intricately woven band of his ephod that was on it was of the same workmanship, woven of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
6 (G)And they set onyx stones, enclosed in [c]settings of gold; they were engraved, as signets are engraved, with the names of the sons of Israel. 7 He put them on the shoulders of the ephod as (H)memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Breastplate
8 (I)And he made the breastplate, artistically woven like the workmanship of the ephod, of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen. 9 They made the breastplate square by doubling it; a span was its length and a span its width when doubled. 10 (J)And they set in it four rows of stones: a row with a sardius, a topaz, and an emerald was the first row; 11 the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond; 12 the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; 13 the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold in their mountings. 14 There were (K)twelve stones according to the names of the sons of Israel: according to their names, engraved like a signet, each one with its own name according to the twelve tribes. 15 And they made chains for the breastplate at the ends, like braided cords of pure gold. 16 They also made two settings of gold and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate. 17 And they put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate. 18 The two ends of the two braided chains they fastened in the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod in the front. 19 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on the edge of it, which was on the inward side of the ephod. 20 They made two other gold rings and put them on the two shoulder straps, underneath the ephod toward its front, right at the seam above the intricately woven band of the ephod. 21 And they bound the breastplate by means of its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord, so that it would be above the intricately woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate would not come loose from the ephod, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Making the Other Priestly Garments
22 (L)He made the (M)robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue. 23 And there was an opening in the middle of the robe, like the opening in a coat of mail, with a woven binding all around the opening, so that it would not tear. 24 They made on the hem of the robe pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet, and of fine woven linen. 25 And they made (N)bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates on the hem of the robe all around between the pomegranates: 26 a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe to [d]minister in, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
27 (O)They made tunics, artistically woven of fine linen, for Aaron and his sons, 28 (P)a turban of fine linen, exquisite hats of fine linen, (Q)short trousers of fine woven linen, 29 (R)and a sash of fine woven linen with blue, purple, and scarlet thread, made by a weaver, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30 (S)Then they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and wrote on it an inscription like the engraving of a signet:
(T)HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
31 And they tied to it a blue cord, to fasten it above on the turban, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
The Work Completed(U)
32 Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was (V)finished. And the children of Israel did (W)according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses; so they did. 33 And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings: its clasps, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets; 34 the covering of ram skins dyed red, the covering of badger skins, and the veil of the covering; 35 the ark of the Testimony with its poles, and the mercy seat; 36 the table, all its utensils, and the (X)showbread; 37 the pure gold lampstand with its lamps (the lamps set in order), all its utensils, and the oil for light; 38 the gold altar, the anointing oil, and the sweet incense; the screen for the tabernacle door; 39 the bronze altar, its grate of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils; the laver with its base; 40 the hangings of the court, its pillars and its sockets, the screen for the court gate, its cords, and its pegs; all the utensils for the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting; 41 and the [e]garments of ministry, to [f]minister in the holy place: the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his sons’ garments, to minister as priests.
42 According to all that the Lord had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel (Y)did all the work. 43 Then Moses looked over all the work, and indeed they had done it; as the Lord had commanded, just so they had done it. And Moses (Z)blessed them.

Exodus 39
1599 Geneva Bible
39 1 The apparel of Aaron and his sons. 32 All that the Lord commanded was made, and finished. 43 Moses blesseth the people.
1 Moreover they made [a]garments of ministration to minister in the Sanctuary of blue silk, and purple, and scarlet: they (A)made also the holy garments for Aaron, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
2 So he made the Ephod of gold, blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
3 And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to work it in the blue silk and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen, with broidered work.
4 For the which they made shoulders to couple together: for it was closed by the two edges thereof.
5 And the broidered girdle of his Ephod that was upon him, was of the same stuff, and of like work: even of gold, of blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
6 ¶ And they wrought (B)two Onyx stones closed in ouches of gold, and graved, as [b]signets are graven, with the names of the children of Israel.
7 And put them on the shoulders of the Ephod, as stones for a (C)remembrance of the children of Israel, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
8 ¶ Also he made the breastplate of broidered work like the work of the Ephod: to wit, of gold, blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
9 They made the breast plate double, and it was square an hand breadth long, and an hand breadth broad: it was also double.
10 And they filled it with four rows of stones. The order was thus, a Ruby, a Topaz, and a Carbuncle in the first row.
11 And in the second row an Emerald, a Sapphire, and a Diamond:
12 Also in the third row [c]a Turquoise, an Agate, and an Hematite:
13 Likewise in the fourth row a Chrysolite, an Onyx, and a Jasper: closed and set in ouches of gold.
14 So the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, even twelve [d]after their names, graven like signets, every one after his name, according to the twelve tribes.
15 After, they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathen work and pure gold.
16 They made also two bosses of gold, and two gold rings, and put the two rings in the two corners of the breastplate.
17 And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings, in the corners of the breastplate.
18 Also the two other ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two bosses, and put them on the shoulders of the Ephod, upon the forefront of it.
19 Likewise they made two rings of gold, and put them in the two other corners of the breastplate upon the edge of it, which was on the inside of the Ephod.
20 They made also two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the Ephod, beneath on the foreside of it, and over against his coupling above the broidered girdle of the Ephod.
21 Then they fastened the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the Ephod, with a lace of blue silk that it might be fast upon the broidered girdle of the Ephod, and that the breastplate should not be loosed from the Ephod, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22 ¶ Moreover, he made the robe of the [e]Ephod of woven work, altogether of blue silk.
23 And [f]the hole of the robe was in the midst of it, as the collar of an habergeon, with an edge about the collar, that it should not rent.
24 And they made upon the skirt of the robe pomegranates, of blue silk and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen twined.
25 They made also (D)bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the skirts of the robe round about between the pomegranates.
26 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate round about the skirts of the robe to minister in, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
27 ¶ After, they made coats of fine linen, of woven work for Aaron and for his sons.
28 And the mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen (E)breeches of fine twined linen.
29 ¶ And the girdle of fine twined linen, and of blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, even of needle work, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30 ¶ Finally, they made the plate for the holy crown of fine gold, and wrote upon it a superscription like to the graving of a signet, (F)HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
31 And they tied unto it a lace of blue silk to fasten it on high upon the mitre, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
32 ¶ Thus was all the work of the Tabernacle, even of the (G)Tabernacle of the Congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses: so did they.
33 ¶ Afterward they brought the Tabernacle unto Moses, the Tabernacle and all his instruments, his taches, his boards, his bars, and his pillars, and his sockets,
34 And the covering of rams’ skins, dyed red, and the coverings of badgers’ skins, and the [g]covering veil.
35 The Ark of the testimony, and the bars thereof, and the Mercy seat.
36 The Table, with all the instruments thereof, and the showbread.
37 The pure Candlestick, the lamps thereof, even the Lamps [h]set in order, and all the instruments thereof, and the oil for light:
38 Also the golden Altar and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging of the Tabernacle door,
39 The brazen Altar with his grate of brass, his bars and all his instruments, the Laver and his foot.
40 The curtains of the court with his pillars, and his sockets, and the hanging to the court gate, and his cords, and his pins, and all the instruments of the service of the Tabernacle, called the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
41 Finally, the ministering garments to serve in the Sanctuary, and the holy garments for Aaron the Priest, and his sons’ garments to minister in the Priest’s office.
42 According to every point that the Lord had [i]commanded Moses, so the children of Israel made all the work.
43 And Moses beheld all the work, and behold they had done it as the Lord had commanded: so had they done: and Moses [j]blessed them.
