My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

Teeth. I am like a skeleton, so strangely emaciated, and my flesh corrupted: even my bones are not entire. (Haydock)
Hebrew, "I have escaped with the skin of my teeth. "Only my gums are left. My bones cut the skin. Symmachus, "I tore my skin with my teeth."
