they open wide their mouths at me, like a ravening and roaring lion.
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
They open wide their mouths against me; they say, "Aha, Aha! our eyes have seen it!"
"All our enemies open their mouths against us;
All your enemies rail against you; they hiss, they gnash their teeth, they cry: "We have swallowed her! Ah, this is the day we longed for; now we have it; we see it!"
He is like a lion eager to tear, as a young lion lurking in ambush.
Men have gaped at me with their mouth; they have struck me insolently on the cheek; they mass themselves together against me.
How long, O Lord, will you look on? Rescue me from their destruction, my precious life from the lions!
Save me from the mouth of the lion! You have rescued[3] me from the horns of the wild oxen!
All who see me mock me; they make mouths at me; they wag their heads;
lest like a lion they tear my soul apart, rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.
