Exodus 28:4 — text, Greek, lexicon

Translations

Louis Segond 1910

KJV

And these [are] the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
