The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man's, and the fourth was like an eagle flying.

But one of the elders said to me, "Stop weeping! See! The Lion who sprang from the tribe of Judah, who belongs to the line of David, has conquered, so that He can open the book and break its seven seals."

and in a loud voice he shouted like the roaring of a lion; and when he had shouted, the seven thunders rumbled.

The wild beast which I saw was like a leopard, but his feet were like a bear's, and his mouth was like a lion's mouth. To him the dragon gave his own power and throne with great authority.

"I, Jesus, sent my angel to bear this testimony to you for the churches. I belong to the line and family of David; I am the bright morning star."
