Exodus 28:31-35
English Standard Version
31 (A)“You shall make the robe of the ephod all of blue. 32 It shall have an opening for the head in the middle of it, with a woven binding around the opening, like the opening in a garment,[a] so that it may not tear. 33 On its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet yarns, around its hem, with bells of gold between them, 34 a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, around the hem of the robe. 35 And it shall be on Aaron when he ministers, and its sound shall be heard when he goes into the Holy Place before the Lord, and when he comes out, so that he does not die.

31 “You are to make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue. 32 There is to be an opening at its top, in the middle, with a woven binding around the opening like the opening of a coat of mail so that it cannot be torn. 33 On its hem you are to make blue and purple and scarlet pomegranates, all around the skirt, with gold bells between them all the way[a] around. 34 You are to have a gold bell and a pomegranate, then[b] a gold bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all the way[c] around it. 35 Aaron is to wear the robe when he ministers[d] so its sound may be heard when he enters and leaves the Holy Place in the Lord’s presence, so that he won’t die.
