What The Bible says about Urim and Thummim

The Urim and Thummim were two magic stones that were used to give a yes or no answer to any question.

(They were also what Joseph Smith used to translate the Book of Mormon.)

Here are the Bible verses that mention the Urim and Thuumim:

And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually. Exodus 28:30

And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim. Leviticus 8:8
