1Now let Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, come near from among the children of Israel, so that they may be my priests, even Aaron, and Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, his sons.
2And make holy robes for Aaron your brother, so that he may be clothed with glory and honour.
3Give orders to all the wise-hearted workmen, whom I have made full of the spirit of wisdom, to make robes for Aaron, so that he may be made holy as my priest.
4This is what they are to make: a priest's bag, an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of coloured needlework, a head-dress, and a linen band; they are to make holy robes for Aaron your brother and for his sons, so that they may do the work of priests for me.
5They are to take the gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen,
6And make the ephod of gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen, the work of a designer.
7It is to have two bands stitched to it at the top of the arms, joining it together.
