It was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span was the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being doubled.(Exodus 39:9)
And they set in it four rows of stones: the first row was a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this was the first row.(Exodus 39:10)
And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.(Exodus 39:11)
And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper: they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.(Exodus 39:13)
And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according to the twelve tribes.(Exodus 39:14)
And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathed work of pure gold.(Exodus 39:15)
