11
the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond;
12
the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
13
the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold in their mountings.
14
There were twelve stones according to the names of the sons of Israel: according to their names, engraved like a signet, each one with its own name according to the twelve tribes.
15
And they made chains for the breastplate at the ends, like braided cords of pure gold.
16
They also made two settings of gold and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
17
And they put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.

The two ends of the two braided chains they fastened in the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod in the front.
