17 They put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.
18 The other two ends of the two braided chains they fastened in the two filigree settings and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.
19 They made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on the edge of it which was on the inner side of the ephod.
20 They made two other golden rings and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the front of it, over against where it joined, above the waistband of the ephod.
21 They bound the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord, so that it might be above the waistband of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not come loose from the ephod, just as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 Then he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.
23 There was an opening in the middle of the robe, like the opening of a coat of mail, with a band all around the opening so that it should not be torn.
