15 Its back has rows of shieldstightly sealed together;
16 each is so close to the nextthat no air can pass between.
17 They are joined fast to one another;they cling together and cannot be parted.
18 Its snorting throws out flashes of light;its eyes are like the rays of dawn.
19 Flames stream from its mouth;sparks of fire shoot out.
20 Smoke pours from its nostrilsas from a boiling pot over burning reeds.
21 Its breath sets coals ablaze,and flames dart from its mouth.
