They are like a lion eager to tear,
like a young lion lurking in ambush.

or they will tear me like a lion,
ripping me apart with no one to rescue me.

he lurks in secret like a lion in a thicket.
He lurks in order to seize the afflicted;
he seizes the afflicted and drags him in his net.

You have rescued me
from the horns of the wild oxen.

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