Exodus 39:3-5

Good News Translation

³ They hammered out sheets of gold and cut them into thin strips to be worked into the fine linen and into the blue, purple, and red wool. ⁴ They made two shoulder straps for the ephod and attached them to its sides, so that it could be fastened. ⁵ The finely woven belt, made of the same materials, was attached to the ephod so as to form one piece with it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
