Mighty and without number;

Its teeth are the teeth of a lion,

And it has the fangs of a lioness. [Rev 9:7, 8]

powerful and without number;

its teeth are the teeth of a lion,

and its fangs are the fangs of a lioness.

that has marched into our land.

There are so many of them

they can’t even be counted.

Their teeth are as sharp as a lion’s teeth.

They are like the fangs of a female lion.
