³¹ “And you will make the robe of the ephod totally of blue yarn. ³² And the opening for his head will be in the middle of it; its opening will have an edge all around, the work of a weaver; it will be like the opening of a sturdy garment for it, so that it will not be torn. ³³ And you will make on its hem pomegranates of blue and purple and crimson yarns on its hem all around and bells of gold in the midst of them all around, ³⁴ a gold bell and a pomegranate, a gold bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around. ³⁵ And it will be on Aaron for serving, and its sound will be heard at his coming into the sanctuary before Yahweh and at his going out, so that he will not die.

³⁶ “And you will make a pure gold rosette,^[a] and you will engrave on it with seal engravings: “A holy object for Yahweh.” ³⁷ And you will place it on a blue cord, and it will be on the turban, at the front of the turban it will be. ³⁸ And it will be on the forehead of Aaron, and Aaron will bear the guilt of the holy objects that the Israelites^[b] will consecrate for all their holy gifts, and it will be on his forehead continually for acceptance for them before Yahweh.

³⁹ “And you will weave the tunic of fine linen, and you will make a turban of fine linen, and you will make a sash, the work of an embroiderer. ⁴⁰ And for the sons of Aaron you will make tunics, and you will make for them sashes and headdresses; you will make them for glory and for splendor.^{[c] 41} And you will clothe them—Aaron, your brother, and his sons with him—and you will anoint them and ordain them^[d] and consecrate them, and they will serve as priests for me. ⁴² And make for them undergarments of linen to cover naked flesh; they will be from loins to thigh. ⁴³ And they will be on Aaron and on his sons when they come to the tent of assembly or when they approach the altar to serve in the sanctuary, so that they will not bear guilt and die. It is a lasting statute for him and for his offspring after him.
