 lig·ure /ˈlɪˌgjʊr, gjɚ/

From: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)

 Lig·ure n.  A kind of precious stone.
    The third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.   --Ex. xxviii. 19.
 

From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Ligure
    (Heb. leshem) occurs only in Ex. 28:19 and 39:12, as the name of
    a stone in the third row on the high priest's breastplate. Some
    have supposed that this stone was the same as the jacinth
    (q.v.), others that it was the opal. There is now no mineral
    bearing this name. The "ligurite" is so named from Liguria in
    Italy, where it was found.
