²⁰ By the new and living way which he made open for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

¹¹ Then Huram, king of Tyre, sent Solomon an answer in writing, saying, Because of his love for his people the Lord has made you king over them.

¹² And Huram said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, maker of heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, full of wisdom and good sense, to be the builder of a house for the Lord and a house for himself as king.

¹⁵ Then let him put to death the goat of the sin-offering for the people, and take its blood inside the veil and do with it as he did with the blood of the ox, shaking drops of it on and before the cover of the ark.

⁴ And blue and purple and red, and the best linen, and goats' hair;

¹⁸ And at the two ends of the cover you are to make two winged ones of hammered gold,

¹⁵ And make a priest's bag for giving decisions, designed like the ephod, made of gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen.
