22 He also made the robe of the ephod woven all of blue yarn,(A) 23 and the opening of the robe in the middle of it was like the opening in a garment,[a] with a binding around its edge, so that it might not be torn. 24 On the lower hem of the robe they made pomegranates of blue, purple, and crimson yarns and of fine twisted linen.[b] 25 They also made bells of pure gold and put the bells between the pomegranates on the lower hem of the robe all around, between the pomegranates, 26 a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate all around on the lower hem of the robe for ministering, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Making the Robe

22 They(A) made the woven robe of the ephod entirely of blue yarn. 23 There was an opening in the center of the robe like that of body armor[a] with a collar around the opening so that it would not tear. 24 They made pomegranates of finely spun blue, purple, and scarlet yarn[b] on the lower hem of the robe. 25 They made bells of pure gold and attached the bells between the pomegranates, all around the hem of the robe between the pomegranates, 26 a bell and a pomegranate alternating all around the lower hem of the robe[c] to be worn for ministry. They made it just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
