Exodus 39:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ The gold was beaten into fine plates and cut into wires and was interwoven into the blue, purple, and scarlet cloth and the linen with skilled craftsmanship. ⁴ Two shoulder pieces were made for the ephod that were attached to its two ends so that it might be joined together. ⁵ The skillfully woven band to bind it together that was placed over it was of the same workmanship and the same materials, of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet cloth and twisted linen, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
