5Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.
6His body is like molten shields, shut close up with scales pressing upon one another.
7One is joined to another, and not so much as any air can come between them:
8They stick one to another and they hold one another fast, and shall not be separated.
9His sneezing is like the shining of fire, and his eyes like the eyelids of the morning.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
Who can open the doors of his face?
Around his teeth is terror.
His back is made of rows of shields,
shut up closely as with a seal.
One is so near to another
that no air can come between them.
They are joined one to another;
they clasp each other and cannot be separated.
His sneezings flash forth light,
and his eyes are like the eyelids of the dawn.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
Who dares open the doors of its mouth,
ringed about with fearsome teeth?
Its back has rows of shields
tightly sealed together;
each is so close to the next
that no air can pass between.
They are joined fast to one another;
they cling together and cannot be parted.
Its snorting throws out flashes of light;
its eyes are like the rays of dawn.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Who can open his jaws,
surrounded by those terrifying teeth?
His pride is in his rows of scales,
closely sealed together.
One scale is so close to another
that no air can pass between them.
They are joined to one another,
so closely connected they cannot be separated.
His snorting flashes with light,
while his eyes are like the rays of dawn.

NLTNew Living Translation
Who could pry open its jaws?
For its teeth are terrible!
The scales on its back are like rows of shields
tightly sealed together.
They are so close together
that no air can get between them.
Each scale sticks tight to the next.
They interlock and cannot be penetrated.
“When it sneezes, it flashes light!
Its eyes are like the red of dawn.

Who can open the doors of its face?
Its teeth all around are fearsome.
Its back has scales of shields;
it is shut up closely as with a seal.
They are close to one another—
even the air cannot come between them.
They are joined one to another;
they cling together and cannot be separated.
“Its snorting flashes forth light,
and its eyes are red like dawn.

KJV 1900King James Version
Who can open the doors of his face?
His teeth are terrible round about.
His scales are his pride,
Shut up together as with a close seal.
One is so near to another,
That no air can come between them.
They are joined one to another,
They stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
By his neesings a light doth shine,
And his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
