22 (A)Then he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of violet; 23 (B)and the opening of the robe was at the top in the center, as the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding all around its opening, so that it would not be torn. 24 And they made pomegranates of violet, purple, and scarlet material and twisted linen on the hem of the robe. 25 They also made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates all around on the hem of the [a]robe, 26 [b]alternating a bell and a pomegranate all around on the hem of the robe for the service, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

27 (C)They also made the tunics of finely woven linen for Aaron and his sons, 28 and the turban of fine linen, and the decorated [c]caps of fine linen, and the linen undergarments of fine twisted linen, 29 and the sash of fine twisted linen, and violet, purple, and scarlet material, the work of the [d]weaver, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

30 (D)They also made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and [e]inscribed it like the engravings of a signet, “Holy to the Lord.” 31 Then they [f]fastened a violet cord to it, to [g]fasten it on the turban above, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

32 So all the work of the [h]tabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed; and the sons of Israel did according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses; so they did. 33 Then they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its [i]furnishings: its clasps, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its bases; 34 and the covering of rams’ skins [j]dyed red, and the covering of [k]fine leather, and the covering curtain; 35 the ark of the testimony, its poles, and the [l]atoning cover; 36 the table, all its utensils, and the bread of the [m]Presence; 37 the pure gold lampstand, [n]with its arrangement of lamps and all its utensils, and the oil for the light; 38 and the gold altar, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the curtain for the doorway of the tent; 39 the [o]bronze altar and its [p]bronze grating, its poles and all its utensils, the basin and its stand; 40 the hangings for the courtyard, its pillars and its bases, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard, its ropes and its pegs, and all the [q]equipment for the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting; 41 the woven garments for ministering in the Holy Place, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to serve as priests. 42 So the sons of Israel did all the work according to everything that the Lord had commanded Moses. 43 And Moses [r]examined all the work, and behold, they had done it; just as the Lord had commanded, this they had done. So Moses (E)blessed them.
