like a ravening and roaring lion.

and my ^ltongue sticks to my jaws;
you lay me in the dust of death.
16 For ^mdogs encompass me;

So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and ^aano kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God. 24 And the king commanded, and ^abthose men who had maliciously accused Daniel were brought and cast into the den of lions—they, their children, and their wives. And before they reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and broke all their bones in pieces.
