Job 41:11-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 41
11Who has been first to give to Me, that I should repay him? Whatever is under the entire heaven is Mine. 12'I will not be silent about his limbs, Or his mighty strength, or his graceful frame. 13Who can strip off his outer covering? Who can pierce his double armor? 14Who can open the doors of his face? Around his teeth there is terror. 15 His strong scales are his pride, Locked as with a tight seal. 16One is so close to another That no air can come between them. 17They are joined one to another; They clasp each other and cannot be separated.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 41
11Who confronted me, that I should repay him? Everything under heaven belongs to me. 12I cannot be silent about his limbs, his power, and his graceful proportions. 13Who can strip off his outer covering? Who can penetrate his double layer of armor? 14Who can open his jaws, surrounded by those terrifying teeth? 15His pride is in his rows of scales, closely sealed together. 16One scale is so close to another that no air can pass between them. 17They are joined to one another, so closely connected they cannot be separated.New Living Translation
12'I want to emphasize Leviathan’s limbs and its enormous strength and graceful form.
13Who can strip off its hide, and who can penetrate its double layer of armor?
14Who could pry open its jaws? For its teeth are terrible!
15The scales on its back are like rows of shields tightly sealed together.
16They are so close together that no air can get between them.
17Each scale sticks tight to the next. They interlock and cannot be penetrated.

Chapter 41
11 Who has first given to me, that I should repay him? Whatever is under the whole heaven is mine. 12"I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, or his mighty strength, or his goodly frame. 13Who can strip off his outer garment? Who would come near him with a bridle? 14Who can open the doors of his face? Around his teeth is terror. 15His back is made of rows of shields, shut up closely as with a seal. 16One is so near to another that no air can come between them. 17They are joined one to another; they clasp each other and cannot be separated.New International Version
Chapter 41
11Who has a claim against me that I must pay? Everything under heaven belongs to me. 12"I will not fail to speak of Leviathan’s limbs, its strength and its graceful form. 13Who can strip off its outer coat? Who can penetrate its double coat of armor ? 14Who dares open the doors of its mouth, ringed about with fearsome teeth? 15Its back has rows of shields tightly sealed together; 16each is so close to the next that no air can pass between. 17They are joined fast to one another; they cling together and cannot be parted.New King James Version
