Exodus 28
1 “Bring Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, near to you from among the children of Israel, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office: Aaron, with Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.
adplica quoque ad te Aaron fratrem tuum cum filiis suis de medio filiorum Israhel ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi Aaron Nadab et Abiu Eleazar et Ithamar
2 You shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty.
faciesque vestem sanctam fratri tuo in gloriam et decorem
3 You shall speak to all who are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they make Aaron’s garments to sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
et loqueris cunctis sapientibus corde quos replevi spiritu prudentiae ut faciant vestes Aaron in quibus sanctificatus ministret mihi
4 These are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, an ephod, a robe, a fitted tunic, a turban, and a sash. They shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother and his sons, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
haec autem erunt vestimenta quae facient rationale et superumerale tunicam et lineam strictam cidarim et balteum facient vestimenta sancta Aaron fratri tuo et filiis eius ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi
5 They shall use the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the fine linen.
accipientque aurum et hyacinthum et purpuram coccumque bis tinctum et byssum
6 “They shall make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the skillful workman.
facient autem superumerale de auro et hyacintho ac purpura coccoque bis tincto et bysso retorta opere polymito
7 It shall have two shoulder straps joined to the two ends of it, that it may be joined together.
duas oras iunctas habebit in utroque latere summitatum ut in unum redeant
8 The skillfully woven band, which is on it, shall be like its work and of the same piece; of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen.
ipsaque textura et cuncta operis varietas erit ex auro et hyacintho et purpura coccoque bis tincto et bysso retorta
9 You shall take two onyx stones, and engrave on them the names of the children of Israel.
sumesque duos lapides onychinos et sculpes in eis nomina filiorum Israhel
10 Six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the six that remain on the other stone, in the order of their birth.
sex nomina in lapide uno et sex reliqua in altero iuxta ordinem nativitatis eorum
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, you shall engrave the two stones, according to the names of the children of Israel. You shall make them to be enclosed in settings of gold.
opere sculptoris et celatura gemmarii sculpes eos nominibus filiorum Israhel inclusos auro atque circumdatos
12 You shall put the two stones on the shoulder straps of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the children of Israel. Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD on his two shoulders for a memorial.
et pones in utroque latere superumeralis memoriale filiis Israhel portabitque Aaron nomina eorum coram Domino super utrumque umerum ob recordationem
13 You shall make settings of gold,
facies et uncinos ex auro
14 and two chains of pure gold; you shall make them like cords of braided work. You shall put the braided chains on the settings.
et duas catenulas auri purissimi sibi invicem coherentes quas inseres uncinis
15 “You shall make a breastplate of judgment, the work of the skillful workman; like the work of the ephod you shall make it; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, you shall make it.
rationale quoque iudicii facies opere polymito iuxta texturam superumeralis ex auro hyacintho et purpura coccoque bis tincto et bysso retorta
16 It shall be square and folded double; a span shall be its length, and a span its width.
quadrangulum erit et duplex mensuram palmi habebit tam in longitudine quam in latitudine
17 You shall set in it settings of stones, four rows of stones: a row of ruby, topaz, and beryl shall be the first row;
ponesque in eo quattuor ordines lapidum in primo versu erit lapis sardius et topazius et zmaragdus
18 and the second row a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;
in secundo carbunculus sapphyrus et iaspis
19 and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
in tertio ligyrius achates et amethistus
20 and the fourth row a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They shall be enclosed in gold in their settings.
in quarto chrysolitus onychinus et berillus inclusi auro erunt per ordines suos
21 The stones shall be according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, everyone according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.
habebuntque nomina filiorum Israhel duodecim nominibus celabuntur singuli lapides nominibus singulorum per duodecim tribus
22 You shall make on the breastplate chains like cords, of braided work of pure gold.
facies in rationali catenas sibi invicem coherentes ex auro purissimo
23 You shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold, and shall put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
et duos anulos aureos quos pones in utraque rationalis summitate
24 You shall put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
catenasque aureas iunges anulis qui sunt in marginibus eius
25 The other two ends of the two braided chains you shall put on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod in its forepart.
et ipsarum catenarum extrema duobus copulabis uncinis in utroque latere superumeralis quod rationale respicit
26 You shall make two rings of gold, and you shall put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its edge, which is toward the side of the ephod inward.
facies et duos anulos aureos quos pones in summitatibus rationalis et in oris quae e regione sunt superumeralis et posteriora eius aspiciunt
27 You shall make two rings of gold, and shall put them on the two shoulder straps of the ephod underneath, in its forepart, close by its coupling, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
nec non et alios duos anulos aureos qui ponendi sunt in utroque latere superumeralis deorsum quod respicit contra faciem iuncturae inferioris ut aptari possit cum superumerali
28 They shall bind the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be on the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate may not swing out from the ephod.
et stringatur rationale anulis suis cum anulis superumeralis vitta hyacinthina ut maneat iunctura fabrefacta et a se invicem rationale et superumerale nequeant separari
29 Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment on his heart, when he goes in to the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
portabitque Aaron nomina filiorum Israhel in rationali iudicii super pectus suum quando ingreditur sanctuarium memoriale coram Domino in aeternum
30 You shall put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be on Aaron’s heart, when he goes in before the LORD. Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel on his heart before the LORD continually.
pones autem in rationali iudicii doctrinam et veritatem quae erunt in pectore Aaron quando ingreditur coram Domino et gestabit iudicium filiorum Israhel in pectore suo in conspectu Domini semper
31 “You shall make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
facies et tunicam superumeralis totam hyacinthinam
32 It shall have a hole for the head in the middle of it. It shall have a binding of woven work around its hole, as it were the hole of a coat of mail, that it not be torn.
in cuius medio supra erit capitium et ora per gyrum eius textilis sicut fieri solet in extremis vestium partibus ne facile rumpatur
33 On its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, all around its hem; with bells of gold between and around them:
deorsum vero ad pedes eiusdem tunicae per circuitum quasi mala punica facies ex hyacintho et purpura et cocco bis tincto mixtis in medio tintinabulis
34 a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, around the hem of the robe.
ita ut tintinabulum sit aureum et malum rursumque tintinabulum aliud aureum et malum punicum
35 It shall be on Aaron to minister: and its sound shall be heard when he goes in to the holy place before the LORD, and when he comes out, that he not die.
et vestietur ea Aaron in officio ministerii ut audiatur sonitus quando ingreditur et egreditur sanctuarium in conspectu Domini et non moriatur
36 “You shall make a plate of pure gold, and engrave on it, like the engravings of a signet, ‘HOLY TO THE LORD.’
facies et lamminam de auro purissimo in qua sculpes opere celatoris Sanctum Domino
37 You shall put it on a lace of blue, and it shall be on the sash. It shall be on the front of the sash.
ligabisque eam vitta hyacinthina et erit super tiaram
38 It shall be on Aaron’s forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall make holy in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always on his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
inminens fronti pontificis portabitque Aaron iniquitates eorum quae obtulerint et sanctificaverint filii Israhel in cunctis muneribus et donariis suis erit autem lammina semper in fronte eius ut placatus eis sit Dominus
39 You shall weave the tunic with fine linen. You shall make a turban of fine linen. You shall make a sash, the work of the embroiderer.
stringesque tunicam bysso et tiaram byssinam facies et balteum opere plumarii
40 “You shall make tunics for Aaron’s sons. You shall make sashes for them. You shall make headbands for them, for glory and for beauty.
porro filiis Aaron tunicas lineas parabis et balteos ac tiaras in gloriam et decorem
41 You shall put them on Aaron your brother, and on his sons with him, and shall anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.
vestiesque his omnibus Aaron fratrem tuum et filios eius cum eo et cunctorum consecrabis manus sanctificabisque illos ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi
42 You shall make them linen pants to cover their naked flesh. They shall reach from the waist even to the thighs.
facies et feminalia linea ut operiant carnem turpitudinis suae a renibus usque ad femina
43 They shall be on Aaron and on his sons, when they go in to the Tent of Meeting, or when they come near to the altar to minister in the holy place, that they do not bear iniquity, and die. This shall be a statute forever to him and to his offspring after him.
et utentur eis Aaron et filii eius quando ingredientur tabernaculum testimonii vel quando adpropinquant ad altare ut ministrent in sanctuario ne iniquitatis rei moriantur legitimum sempiternum erit Aaron et semini eius post eum
