Isaiah 5:29

29 Their roaring is like a lion,
like young lions they roar;
they growl and ^aseize their prey;
they carry it off, and none can rescue.

Jeremiah 4:7

7 ^bA lion has gone up from his thicket,
a destroyer of nations has set out;
he has gone out from his place
to make your land a waste;
your cities will be ruins
^cwithout inhabitant.

Nahum 2:11-12

11 Where is the lions’ den,
the feeding place of ^dthe young lions,
where the lion and lioness went,
where his cubs were, with ^enone to disturb?
12 ^fThe lion tore enough for his cubs
and ^gstrangled prey for his lionesses;
he filled his caves with prey
and his dens with torn flesh.
