18 And the second row shall be nofech, sapphire, and yahalom.
19 And the third row a leshem, shevo, and achlamah.
20 And the fourth row tarshish, shoham, and yashfeh; they shall be set in zahav in their settings.
21 And the avanim (gemstones) shall be for the Shemot Bnei Yisroel, Shteym Esreh (Twelve), according to their Shemot, like the engravings of a chotam (signet ring); every one with shmo shall they be according to the Shnei Asar Shevet (Twelve Tribes).
