'Lions' in the Bible

who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

They had hair like women's hair, and their teeth were like those of lions.

Thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow; and the heads of lions. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulfur.
