"In the second, a ruby, a sapphire, and an onyx;"
— Exodus 39:11, Bible in Basic English
The priest's bag was designed like the ephod, of the best linen worked with gold and blue and purple and red.
It was square and folded in two, as long and as wide as the stretch of a man's hand;
And on it they put four lines of stones: in the first line was a carnelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;
In the second, a ruby, a sapphire, and an onyx;
In the third, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
In the fourth, a topaz, a beryl, and a jasper; they were fixed in twisted frames of gold.
There were twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel; on every one the name of one of the tribes of Israel was cut, like the cutting of a stamp.
