1 Samuel 17:34-36

34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep sheep for his father. And when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb from the flock, 35 I went after him and struck him and delivered it out of his mouth. And if he arose against me, I caught him by his beard and struck him and killed him. 36 Your servant has struck down both lions and bears, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be like one of them, ^afor he has defied the armies of the living God.”

Psalms 3:7

7 ^bArise, O Lord!
Save me, O my God!
For you ^cstrike all my enemies on the cheek;
you ^dbreak the teeth of the wicked.

Psalms 58:6

6 O God, ^ebreak the teeth in their mouths;
tear out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!

Amos 3:12

12 Thus says the Lord: ^f“As the shepherd rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, ^gso shall the people of Israel ^hwho dwell in Samaria be rescued, with the corner of a couch and part ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain} of a bed.
