{He is like} a lion; he longs to tear apart, and like a strong lion crouching in hiding places.

They open their mouth against me [like] a lion tearing and roaring.

Because dogs have surrounded me; a gang of evildoers has encircled me. Like the lion [they are at] my hands and my feet.

Or else he will tear me apart like a lion, ripping to pieces, with none [to] deliver.

He lies in ambush {secretly,} like a lion in a thicket. He lies in ambush to seize [the] poor; he seizes [the] poor by catching him in his net.

You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the young lion and the serpent.

I am surrounded by lions. I lie down with those who burn with fire that is, with people whose teeth are like spears and arrows whose tongues are like sharp swords.

Sending out their voices like lions among your worshippers; they have put up their signs to be seen.

Make them - their nobles - like Oreb and like Zeeb, And, like Zebah and like Zalmunna, all their princes:

Save me from the mouth of a lion: -- And -- from the horns of the high places Thou hast answered me!

He wore cursing like his coat—
let it enter his body like water
and go into his bones like oil.
