出埃及记 28
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
吩咐為亞倫做聖衣(A)
28 “你要從以色列人中使你的哥哥亞倫和他的眾子，就是亞倫和他的眾子：拿答、亞比戶、以利亞撒、以他瑪，都一同來到你面前，作事奉我的祭司。 2 你要為你哥哥亞倫做聖衣，使他有榮耀，有華美。 3 你又要吩咐所有心中有智慧的，就是我用智慧的靈充滿的，給亞倫做衣服，使他成聖，作事奉我的祭司。 4 這些就是他們要做的衣服：胸牌、以弗得、長外袍、雜色內袍、禮冠、腰帶。他們要為你哥哥亞倫和他的眾子做聖衣，使他們作事奉我的祭司。 5 他們要拿金線、藍色紫色朱紅色線和細麻去做。
以弗得的做法(B)
6 “他們要拿金線、藍色紫色朱紅色線和撚的細麻，用巧工來做以弗得。 7 以弗得要有兩條肩帶，連接著兩端，好使它相連在一起。 8 以弗得上面的帶子，它的巧工要和以弗得一樣，用來束上以弗得，要用金線、藍色紫色朱紅色線和撚的細麻做成。 9 你要取兩塊紅寶石，把以色列眾子的名字刻在上面， 10 六個名字在一塊寶石上，其餘六個名字在另一塊寶石上，都是照著他們出生的次序。 11 好像寶石雕刻匠刻印章一樣，你要把以色列眾子的名字刻在這兩塊寶石上，要把它們鑲嵌在金槽中。 12 你要把這兩塊寶石安放在以弗得的肩帶上，作以色列民的記念石。亞倫在耶和華面前，用兩肩擔當他們的名字，作為記念。 13 你要做金槽， 14 和兩條純金的鍊子，像做繩子一樣擰成，把這像繩子一樣的鍊子放置在二槽上。
胸牌的做法(C)
15 “你要用巧工做一個作判斷用的胸牌，像以弗得的做法一樣，要用金線、藍色紫色朱紅色線和撚的細麻做成。 16 胸牌要四方的，雙層的，長二十二公分，寬二十二公分。 17 你要在胸牌上面鑲上四行寶石：第一行是紅寶石、黃玉、翡翠； 18 第二行是綠寶石、藍寶石、金鋼石； 19 第三行是黃瑪瑙、白瑪瑙、紫晶； 20 第四行是水蒼玉、紅瑪瑙、碧玉。這些寶石都是鑲在金槽裡。 21 按著以色列眾子的名字，這些寶石要有十二塊；按著他們的名字刻印章，按他們的名字各代表十二個支派。 22 你要在胸牌上做純金的鍊子，像做繩子一樣擰成。 23 你要在胸牌上做兩個金環，把這兩個金環安在胸牌的兩端之上。 24 你要把那兩條金鍊子穿在胸牌兩端的兩個環子裡。 25 你又要把那兩條鍊子的另兩端接在兩槽上，連在以弗得前面的肩帶上。 26 你又要做兩個金環，安在胸牌下邊的兩端，就是靠近以弗得裡面的邊緣上。 27 你又要做兩個金環，把它們安在以弗得前面兩條肩帶的下面，靠近相接的地方，在以弗得巧工織成的帶子上面。 28 你要用紫藍色細線把胸牌的環子繫在以弗得的環子上，使胸牌貼在以弗得巧工織成的帶子上，免得胸牌從以弗得上脫下來。 29 亞倫進入聖所的時候，要把作決斷用的胸牌，上面有以色列眾子的名字，帶在胸前，在耶和華面前常作記念。 30 你要把烏陵和土明放在作決斷用的胸牌裡。亞倫進入耶和華面前的時候，它們要帶在胸前；這樣，亞倫就在耶和華面前常常把以色列眾子的決斷帶在胸前。
外袍的做法(D)
31 “你要做以弗得的長外袍，全件要紫藍色。 32 在長外袍的正中，頭部的地方，要有一個領口，領口的周圍要有領邊，是用紡織的細工織成，如同戰袍的領口一樣，免得長外袍破裂。 33 在長外袍下襬的周圍，你要用藍色紫色朱紅色線做石榴，在長外袍下襬周圍的石榴中間，要綴上金鈴。 34 在長外袍下襬的周圍綴上一個金鈴、一個石榴、一個金鈴、一個石榴， 35 長外袍要穿在亞倫的身上，好作事奉。他進入聖所到耶和華面前，以及出來的時候，他的聲音必被聽見，免得他死亡。
冠牌的做法(E)
36 “你要用精金做一面牌子，在牌上像刻印章般刻著：‘歸耶和華為聖’。 37 你要用一條紫藍色細線把牌子繫住，好使它安在禮冠上，就是在禮冠的前面。 38 這牌要在亞倫的額上，亞倫要擔當干犯聖物的罪過，這些聖物是以色列人在一切聖禮物上分別為聖的；這牌要常在亞倫的額上，好使他們在耶和華面前可以得蒙悅納。 39 你要用細麻線編織雜色內袍，用細麻布做禮冠，又用刺繡的手工做腰帶。
衣冠的做法(F)
40 “你也要為亞倫的兒子做內袍，為他們做腰帶，又為他們做頭巾，使他們有榮耀，有華美。 41 你要把這些給你哥哥亞倫和他的兒子們穿上，又要膏抹他們，按立他們，把他們分別為聖，好使他們可以作我的祭司。 42 你要給他們做白麻布褲子，遮蓋裸體，褲子遮蓋腰間，直到大腿。 43 亞倫和他兒子進入會幕，或走近祭壇，在聖所裡事奉的時候，都必須穿上褲子，免得他們擔當罪過而死。這要給亞倫和他的後裔作永遠的條例。”
Exodus 28
King James Version
28 And take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons.
2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
3 And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
4 And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
5 And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.
6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.
7 It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof; and so it shall be joined together.
8 And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
10 Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to be set in ouches of gold.
12 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13 And thou shalt make ouches of gold;
14 And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of wreathen work shalt thou make them, and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches.
15 And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.
16 Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
18 And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.
21 And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve tribes.
22 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends of wreathen work of pure gold.
23 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
24 And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate.
25 And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it.
26 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward.
27 And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart thereof, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.
28 And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.
29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the Lord continually.
30 And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the Lord continually.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
32 And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be not rent.
33 And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
34 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
35 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the Lord, and when he cometh out, that he die not.
36 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, Holiness To The Lord.
37 And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
38 And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the Lord.
39 And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle of needlework.
40 And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.
41 And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.
42 And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach:
43 And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him.
Exodus 28
English Standard Version
The Priests' Garments
28 “Then bring near to you (A)Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, from among the people of Israel, to serve me as priests—Aaron and Aaron's sons, (B)Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. 2 (C)And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty. 3 You shall speak to all the (D)skillful, whom I have filled with a spirit of skill, that they make Aaron's garments to consecrate him for my priesthood. 4 These are the garments that they shall make: a (E)breastpiece, an (F)ephod, (G)a robe, (H)a coat of checker work, (I)a turban, and (J)a sash. They shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother and his sons to serve me as priests. 5 They shall receive (K)gold, blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and fine twined linen.
6 (L)“And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and of fine twined linen, skillfully worked. 7 It shall have two shoulder pieces attached to its two edges, so that it may be joined together. 8 And the (M)skillfully woven band on it shall be made like it and be of one piece with it, of gold, blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and fine twined linen. 9 You shall take two onyx stones, and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel, 10 six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the remaining six on the other stone, in the order of their birth. 11 As a jeweler engraves signets, so shall you engrave the two stones with the names of the sons of Israel. You shall enclose them in settings of gold filigree. 12 And you shall set the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel. And (N)Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord on his two shoulders (O)for remembrance. 13 You shall make settings of gold filigree, 14 and two chains of pure gold, twisted like cords; and you shall attach the corded chains to the settings.
15 (P)“You shall make a breastpiece of judgment, in skilled work. In the style of the ephod you shall make it—of gold, blue and purple and scarlet yarns, and fine twined linen shall you make it. 16 It shall be square and doubled, a span[a] its length and a span its breadth. 17 (Q)You shall set in it four rows of stones. A row of sardius,[b] topaz, and carbuncle shall be the first row; 18 and the second row an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond; 19 and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; 20 and the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They shall be set in gold filigree. 21 There shall be twelve stones with their names according to the names of the sons of Israel. They shall be like signets, each engraved with its name, for the twelve tribes. 22 You shall make for the breastpiece twisted chains like cords, of pure gold. 23 And you shall make for the breastpiece two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two edges of the breastpiece. 24 And you shall put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the edges of the breastpiece. 25 The two ends of the two cords you shall attach to the two settings of filigree, and so attach it in front to the shoulder pieces of the ephod. 26 You shall make two rings of gold, and put them at the two ends of the breastpiece, on its inside edge next to the ephod. 27 And you shall make two rings of gold, and attach them in front to the lower part of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, at its seam above the (R)skillfully woven band of the ephod. 28 And they shall bind the breastpiece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, so that it may lie on the skillfully woven band of the ephod, so that the breastpiece shall not come loose from the ephod. 29 (S)So Aaron shall bear the names of the sons of Israel in the breastpiece of judgment on his heart, when he goes into the Holy Place, to bring them to regular (T)remembrance before the Lord. 30 And in the breastpiece of judgment (U)you shall put the Urim and the Thummim, and they shall be on Aaron's heart, when he goes in before the Lord. Thus Aaron shall bear the judgment of the people of Israel on his heart before the Lord regularly.
31 (V)“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,[c] 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.
36 “You shall make (W)a plate of pure gold and engrave on it, like the engraving of a signet, (X)‘Holy to the Lord.’ 37 And you shall fasten it on the turban by a cord of blue. It shall be on the front of the turban. 38 It shall be on Aaron's forehead, and Aaron shall (Y)bear any guilt from the holy things that the people of Israel consecrate as their holy gifts. It shall regularly be on his forehead, that they may be accepted before the Lord.
39 “You shall weave the coat in checker work of fine linen, and you shall make a turban of fine linen, and you shall make a sash embroidered with needlework.
40 (Z)“For Aaron's sons you shall make coats and sashes and caps. You shall make them (AA)for glory and beauty. 41 And you shall put them on Aaron your brother, and on his sons with him, and shall (AB)anoint them and ordain them and (AC)consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. 42 You shall make for them (AD)linen undergarments to cover their naked flesh. They shall reach from the hips to the thighs; 43 and they shall be on Aaron and on his sons when they go into the tent of meeting or when they come near the altar to minister in the Holy Place, lest they (AE)bear guilt and die. (AF)This shall be a statute forever for him and for his offspring after him.
