Exegesis
The first clause assigns the action to an unnamed agent and targets baddei {בַּדֵּי | baddê} with oro {עוֹרוֹ | ʿōrô} in a possessive relationship, a terse image of the body being eaten from the outside inward.
In context — Job 18:13
It will consume the parts of his skin; the firstborn of death will consume his limbs.
