Bible verse
His rows of scales are his pride, tightly sealed together.
Job 41:15 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 41.
11 Who has given to Me that I should repay him? Everything under heaven is Mine.
12 I cannot keep silent about his limbs, his power and graceful form.
13 Who can strip off his outer coat? Who can approach him with a bridle?
14 Who can open his jaws, ringed by his fearsome teeth?
15 His rows of scales are his pride, tightly sealed together.
16 One scale is so near to another that no air can pass between them.
17 They are joined to one another; they clasp and cannot be separated.
18 His snorting flashes with light, and his eyes are like the rays of dawn.
19 Firebrands stream from his mouth; fiery sparks shoot forth!
