and the opening for his head shall be in the midst thereof, - a border, shall there be to the opening thereof round about the work of a weaver, like the opening of a coat of mail, shall there be to it, it must not be rent.

And thou shalt make upon the skirts thereof pomegranates of blue and purple and crimson, upon the skirts thereof round about - and bells of gold in the midst of them round about:

a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold, and a pomegranate, - upon the skirts of the robe, round about.

And it shall be upon Aaron, for ministering, - so shall be heard the sound of him - when he goeth into the holy place, before Yahweh, and cometh out, and dieth not.

And thou shalt make a burnished plate, of pure gold, - and shalt engrave thereupon, like the engravings of a seal-ring, Holiness to Yahweh.

And, for the sons of Aaron, shalt thou make tunics, and shalt make for them girdles, - and caps, shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.

And thou shalt clothe therewith Aaron thy brother, and his sons, with him, - and shalt anoint them and install them, and hallow them, so shall they minister as priests unto me.

And thou shalt make for them breeches of linen, to cover their unseemliness, from the loins even unto the thighs, shall they be;

so shall they be upon Aaron and upon his sons, when they go into the tent of meeting, or when they approach unto the altar, to minister in the holy place, lest they bear iniquity, and die, - a statute age-abiding, to him and to his seed after him.
