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