The scales on its back are like rows of shields

tightly sealed together.

Its back has scales of shields;

it is shut up closely as with a seal.

I will not conceal his parts,

Nor his power, nor his comely proportion.

Who can discover the face of his garment?

Or who can come to him with his double bridle?

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.
