Psalm 21:21
Douay-Rheims
Deliver, O God, my soul from the sword: my only one from the hand of the dog.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
Deliverance pleaded in view of former help, when in the most imminent danger, from the most powerful enemy, represented by the unicorn or wild buffalo. the lion's mouth--(Compare Psa 22:13). The lion often used as a figure representing violent enemies; the connecting of the mouth intimates their rapacity.
