The Priestly Garments

39 From the blue, purple and scarlet yarn(A) they made woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary.(B) They also made sacred garments(C) for Aaron, as the Lord commanded Moses.

The Ephod(D)

They[a] made the ephod of gold, and of blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and of finely twisted linen. They hammered out thin sheets of gold and cut strands to be worked into the blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen—the work of skilled hands. They made shoulder pieces for the ephod, which were attached to two of its corners, so it could be fastened. Its skillfully woven waistband was like it—of one piece with the ephod and made with gold, and with blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and with finely twisted linen, as the Lord commanded Moses.

They mounted the onyx stones in gold filigree settings and engraved them like a seal with the names of the sons of Israel. Then they fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial(E) stones for the sons of Israel, as the Lord commanded Moses.

The Breastpiece(F)

They fashioned the breastpiece(G)—the work of a skilled craftsman. They made it like the ephod: of gold, and of blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and of finely twisted linen. It was square—a span[b] long and a span wide—and folded double. 10 Then they mounted four rows of precious stones on it. The first row was carnelian, chrysolite and beryl; 11 the second row was turquoise, lapis lazuli and emerald; 12 the third row was jacinth, agate and amethyst; 13 the fourth row was topaz, onyx and jasper.[c] They were mounted in gold filigree settings. 14 There were twelve stones, one for each of the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.(H)

15 For the breastpiece they made braided chains of pure gold, like a rope. 16 They made two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and fastened the rings to two of the corners of the breastpiece. 17 They fastened the two gold chains to the rings at the corners of the breastpiece, 18 and the other ends of the chains to the two settings, attaching them to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front. 19 They made two gold rings and attached them to the other two corners of the breastpiece on the inside edge next to the ephod. 20 Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the ephod, close to the seam just above the waistband of the ephod. 21 They tied the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod with blue cord, connecting it to the waistband so that the breastpiece would not swing out from the ephod—as the Lord commanded Moses.

Other Priestly Garments(I)

22 They made the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth—the work of a weaver— 23 with an opening in the center of the robe like the opening of a collar,[d] and a band around this opening, so that it would not tear. 24 They made pomegranates of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen around the hem of the robe. 25 And they made bells of pure gold and attached them around the hem between the pomegranates. 26 The bells and pomegranates alternated around the hem of the robe to be worn for ministering, as the Lord commanded Moses.

27 For Aaron and his sons, they made tunics of fine linen(J)—the work of a weaver— 28 and the turban(K) of fine linen, the linen caps and the undergarments of finely twisted linen. 29 The sash was made of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn—the work of an embroiderer—as the Lord commanded Moses.

30 They made the plate, the sacred emblem, out of pure gold and engraved on it, like an inscription on a seal: holy to the Lord.(L) 31 Then they fastened a blue cord to it to attach it to the turban,(M) as the Lord commanded Moses.

Moses Inspects the Tabernacle(N)

32 So all the work on the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, was completed. The Israelites did everything just as the Lord commanded Moses.(O) 33 Then they brought the tabernacle(P) to Moses: the tent and all its furnishings, its clasps, frames, crossbars, posts and bases; 34 the covering of ram skins dyed red and the covering of another durable leather[e] and the shielding curtain; 35 the ark of the covenant law(Q) with its poles and the atonement cover; 36 the table(R) with all its articles and the bread of the Presence;(S) 37 the pure gold lampstand(T) with its row of lamps and all its accessories,(U) and the olive oil(V) for the light; 38 the gold altar,(W) the anointing oil,(X) the fragrant incense,(Y) and the curtain(Z) for the entrance to the tent; 39 the bronze altar(AA) with its bronze grating, its poles and all its utensils; the basin(AB) with its stand; 40 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, and the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard;(AC) the ropes and tent pegs for the courtyard; all the furnishings for the tabernacle, the tent of meeting; 41 and the woven garments(AD) worn for ministering in the sanctuary, both the sacred garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons when serving as priests.

42 The Israelites had done all the work just as the Lord had commanded Moses.(AE) 43 Moses inspected the work and saw that they had done it just as the Lord had commanded.(AF) So Moses blessed(AG) them.

As roupas dos sacerdotes

39 As roupas para os sacerdotes vestirem no serviço do templo foram feitas com fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho. Além disso, também fizeram as roupas sagradas para Aarão. Tudo foi feito exatamente como o SENHOR tinha dito a Moisés para fazer.

O éfode

Fizeram o éfode com fios de ouro, linho fino e fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho. Trabalharam a martelo o ouro até formarem lâminas finíssimas, das quais cortavam fios de ouro. Depois bordavam o linho fino com os fios de ouro e os fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho, tudo feito com muita habilidade. Fizeram duas ombreiras, unidas pelas extremidades. Bordaram o cinto e prenderam o éfode com o cinto. Fizeram o cinto da mesma maneira que fizeram o éfode: usaram fios de ouro, linho fino e fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha dito a Moisés.

Montaram as pedras de ônix em engastes de ouro e gravaram nas pedras os nomes dos filhos de Israel, como num selo. Depois colocaram as pedras nas ombreiras do éfode para Deus se lembrar dos filhos de Israel. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha dito a Moisés para fazer.

O peitoral

O peitoral foi feito de forma artística, assim como também foi o éfode. Foi bordado com fios de ouro, linho fino e fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho. O peitoral era quadrado e dobrado em forma de bolsa. Cada lado media vinte e dois centímetros. 10 Depois colocaram nele quatro filas de pedras preciosas. Na primeira fila, fizeram um rubi, um topázio e uma esmeralda. 11 Na segunda fila, fixaram uma turquesa, uma safira e um ônix. 12 Na terceira fila, fixaram um jacinto, uma ágata e uma ametista. 13 Na quarta fila, um berilo, um sardônio e um jaspe. Todas montadas em engastes de ouro. 14 Eram doze pedras porque eram doze os nomes dos filhos de Israel. Cada pedra tinha gravado nela, como num selo, o nome de um dos filhos de Israel.

15 Fizeram pequenas correntes de ouro puro, trançadas como cordas para o peitoral. 16 Fizeram dois engastes de ouro e duas argolas de ouro, e as prenderam nas extremidades do peitoral. 17 Prenderam duas correntes de ouro às duas argolas nas extremidades do peitoral. 18 E prenderam as outras extremidades das correntes aos dois engastes de ouro e prenderam os engastes às ombreiras do éfode, na parte da frente.

19 Fizeram outras duas argolas de ouro e as colocaram nas outras duas extremidades do peitoral, na borda interior, junto ao éfode. 20 Fizeram também duas argolas de ouro e as colocaram nas duas ombreiras do éfode, na parte inferior do peitoral, perto da costura, sobre o cinto do éfode. 21 Prenderam as argolas do peitoral às argolas do éfode com cordão azul, ligando-o ao cinto do éfode para que o peitoral não se separasse do éfode. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha mandado Moisés fazer.

As outras roupas dos sacerdotes

22 O manto do éfode foi inteiramente feito de fios de tecido azul bordado. 23 O manto tinha uma abertura no centro reforçada com uma gola para não se rasgar. 24 Em volta da bainha do manto fizeram romãs de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho e linho fino. 25 Entre cada romã colocaram um sino de ouro: 26 um sino de ouro e uma romã, seguida por outro sino e outra romã. Todos eles estavam em volta de toda a bainha do manto, que era para ser vestido durante o serviço do sacerdote. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha ordenado a Moisés.

27 As túnicas para Aarão e os seus filhos foram feitos de linho fino bordado. 28 Também fizeram de linho fino o turbante, os barretes e a roupa interior. 29 Depois fizeram o cinto de linho fino e de fios de tecido azul, roxo e vermelho bordado. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha ordenado a Moisés.

30 Fizeram também uma lâmina de ouro puro e gravaram nela, como se grava num selo: Dedicado ao Senhor. 31 Depois prenderam a lâmina na parte de cima do turbante com uma fita azul. Tudo foi feito como o SENHOR tinha ordenado a Moisés.

O final do trabalho

32 Assim terminou a construção da Tenda Sagrada, ou seja, da Tenda do Encontro. Os israelitas fizeram tudo como o SENHOR tinha ordenado a Moisés. 33 Então mostraram a Moisés a Tenda Sagrada e todos os seus acessórios: ganchos, molduras, travessas, colunas e bases. 34 Mostraram-lhe as peles de carneiro tingidas de vermelho, as peles finas e a cortina que ficava diante da arca. 35 Mostraram-lhe também a arca da aliança com as suas varas e a cobertura de purificação. 36 Mostraram-lhe também a mesa com todos os seus utensílios e os pães da Presença; 37 o candelabro de ouro puro com todas as suas lâmpadas colocadas em ordem, e todos os seus utensílios, e o azeite para iluminar; 38 o altar de ouro, o azeite de consagração, o incenso aromático, a cortina para a entrada da tenda; 39 o altar de bronze com a grelha de bronze, as suas varas e os seus utensílios; a bacia com a sua base; 40 as cortinas do pátio com as suas colunas e bases; a cortina que cobre a entrada do pátio, as cordas e estacas e todos os utensílios para a Tenda Sagrada, ou seja, a Tenda do Encontro. 41 Também lhe mostraram todas as roupas que tinham feito para os sacerdotes poderem servir no Lugar Santo: as roupas sagradas do sacerdote Aarão e as roupas para os seus filhos usarem no serviço de sacerdotes.

42 O povo de Israel fez tudo como o SENHOR tinha ordenado a Moisés. 43 Quando Moisés examinou a obra que tinham feito, os abençoou porque viu que eles tinham feito exatamente como o SENHOR tinha ordenado.

39 Avec les étoffes teintes en bleu, en pourpre et en cramoisi, on fit les vêtements d'office pour le service dans le sanctuaire, et on fit les vêtements sacrés pour Aaron, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

On fit l'éphod d'or, de fil bleu, pourpre et cramoisi, et de fin lin retors.

On étendit des lames d'or, et on les coupa en fils, que l'on entrelaça dans les étoffes teintes en bleu, en pourpre et en cramoisi, et dans le fin lin; il était artistement travaillé.

On y fit des épaulettes qui le joignaient, et c'est ainsi qu'il était joint par ses deux extrémités.

La ceinture était du même travail que l'éphod et fixée sur lui; elle était d'or, de fil bleu, pourpre et cramoisi, et de fin lin retors, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

On entoura de montures d'or des pierres d'onyx, sur lesquelles on grava les noms des fils d'Israël, comme on grave les cachets.

On les mit sur les épaulettes de l'éphod, en souvenir des fils d'Israël, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

On fit le pectoral, artistement travaillé, du même travail que l'éphod, d'or, de fil bleu, pourpre et cramoisi, et de fin lin retors.

Il était carré; on fit le pectoral double: sa longueur était d'un empan, et sa largeur d'un empan; il était double.

10 On le garnit de quatre rangées de pierres: première rangée, une sardoine, une topaze, une émeraude;

11 seconde rangée, une escarboucle, un saphir, un diamant;

12 troisième rangée, une opale, une agate, une améthyste;

13 quatrième rangée, une chrysolithe, un onyx, un jaspe. Ces pierres étaient enchâssées dans leurs montures d'or.

14 Il y en avait douze, d'après les noms des fils d'Israël; elles étaient gravées comme des cachets, chacune avec le nom de l'une des douze tribus. -

15 On fit sur le pectoral des chaînettes d'or pur, tressées en forme de cordons.

16 On fit deux montures d'or et deux anneaux d'or, et on mit les deux anneaux aux deux extrémités du pectoral.

17 On passa les deux cordons d'or dans les deux anneaux aux deux extrémités du pectoral;

18 on arrêta par devant les bouts des deux cordons aux deux montures placées sur les épaulettes de l'éphod. -

19 On fit encore deux anneaux d'or, que l'on mit aux deux extrémités du pectoral, sur le bord intérieur appliqué contre l'éphod.

20 On fit deux autres anneaux d'or, que l'on mit au bas des deux épaulettes de l'éphod, sur le devant, près de la jointure, au-dessus de la ceinture de l'éphod.

21 On attacha le pectoral par ses anneaux aux anneaux de l'éphod avec un cordon bleu, afin que le pectoral fût au-dessus de la ceinture de l'éphod et qu'il ne pût pas se séparer de l'éphod, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

22 On fit la robe de l'éphod, tissée entièrement d'étoffe bleue.

23 Il y avait, au milieu de la robe, une ouverture comme l'ouverture d'une cotte de mailles, et cette ouverture était bordée tout autour, afin que la robe ne se déchirât pas.

24 On mit sur la bordure de la robe des grenades de couleur bleue, pourpre et cramoisi, en fil retors;

25 on fit des clochettes d'or pur, et on mit les clochettes entre les grenades, sur tout le tour de la bordure de la robe, entre les grenades:

26 une clochette et une grenade, une clochette et une grenade, sur tout le tour de la bordure de la robe, pour le service, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

27 On fit les tuniques de fin lin, tissées, pour Aaron et pour ses fils;

28 la tiare de fin lin, et les bonnets de fin lin servant de parure; les caleçons de lin, de fin lin retors;

29 la ceinture de fin lin retors, brodée, et de couleur bleue, pourpre et cramoisie, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

30 On fit d'or pur la lame, diadème sacré, et l'on y écrivit, comme on grave un cachet: Sainteté à l'Éternel.

31 On l'attacha avec un cordon bleu à la tiare, en haut, comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné à Moïse.

32 Ainsi furent achevés tous les ouvrages du tabernacle, de la tente d'assignation. Les enfants d'Israël firent tout ce que l'Éternel avait ordonné à Moïse; ils firent ainsi.

33 On amena le tabernacle à Moïse: la tente et tout ce qui en dépendait, les agrafes, les planches, les barres, les colonnes et les bases;

34 la couverture de peaux de béliers teintes en rouge, la couverture de peaux de dauphins, et le voile de séparation;

35 l'arche du témoignage et ses barres, et le propitiatoire;

36 la table, tous ses ustensiles, et les pains de proposition;

37 le chandelier d'or pur, ses lampes, les lampes préparées, tous ses ustensiles, et l'huile pour le chandelier;

38 l'autel d'or, l'huile d'onction et le parfum odoriférant, et le rideau de l'entrée de la tente;

39 l'autel d'airain, sa grille d'airain, ses barres, et tous ses ustensiles; la cuve avec sa base;

40 les toiles du parvis, ses colonnes, ses bases, et le rideau de la porte du parvis, ses cordages, ses pieux, et tous les ustensiles pour le service du tabernacle, pour la tente d'assignation;

41 les vêtements d'office pour le sanctuaire, les vêtements sacrés pour le sacrificateur Aaron, et les vêtements de ses fils pour les fonctions du sacerdoce.

42 Les enfants d'Israël firent tous ces ouvrages, en se conformant à tous les ordres que l'Éternel avait donnés à Moïse.

43 Moïse examina tout le travail; et voici, ils l'avaient fait comme l'Éternel l'avait ordonné, ils l'avaient fait ainsi. Et Moïse les bénit.

39 And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the Lord commanded Moses.

And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to work it in the blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen, with cunning work.

They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it together: by the two edges was it coupled together.

And the curious girdle of his ephod, that was upon it, was of the same, according to the work thereof; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; as the Lord commanded Moses.

And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold, graven, as signets are graven, with the names of the children of Israel.

And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod, that they should be stones for a memorial to the children of Israel; as the Lord commanded Moses.

And he made the breastplate of cunning work, like the work of the ephod; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

It was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span was the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being doubled.

10 And they set in it four rows of stones: the first row was a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this was the first row.

11 And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.

12 And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.

13 And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper: they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.

14 And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according to the twelve tribes.

15 And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathen work of pure gold.

16 And they made two ouches of gold, and two gold rings; and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate.

17 And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.

18 And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it.

19 And they made two rings of gold, and put them on the two ends of the breastplate, upon the border of it, which was on the side of the ephod inward.

20 And they made two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart of it, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.

21 And they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as the Lord commanded Moses.

22 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.

23 And there was an hole in the midst of the robe, as the hole of an habergeon, with a band round about the hole, that it should not rend.

24 And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.

25 And they made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round about between the pomegranates;

26 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, round about the hem of the robe to minister in; as the Lord commanded Moses.

27 And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for his sons,

28 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen,

29 And a girdle of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, of needlework; as the Lord commanded Moses.

30 And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing, like to the engravings of a signet, Holiness To The Lord.

31 And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten it on high upon the mitre; as the Lord commanded Moses.

32 Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so did they.

33 And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the tent, and all his furniture, his taches, his boards, his bars, and his pillars, and his sockets,

34 And the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the covering of badgers' skins, and the vail of the covering,

35 The ark of the testimony, and the staves thereof, and the mercy seat,

36 The table, and all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread,

37 The pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof, even with the lamps to be set in order, and all the vessels thereof, and the oil for light,

38 And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle door,

39 The brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,

40 The hangings of the court, his pillars, and his sockets, and the hanging for the court gate, his cords, and his pins, and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation,

41 The cloths of service to do service in the holy place, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his sons' garments, to minister in the priest's office.

42 According to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so the children of Israel made all the work.

43 And Moses did look upon all the work, and, behold, they had done it as the Lord had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.
