Psalm 91:13
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. (Psalm 91:13)
Dragon.
 See on Ps. 74:13. The word probably denotes a sea monster. He who trusts God is safe in the midst of the most fearful dangers, as if he were walking unharmed amid venomous serpents.
Adder.
 Heb. pethen, a species of poisonous snake (see Deut. 32:33; Job 20:14, 16; Isa. 11:8 for other occurrences of pethen).
Lion.
Figurative for a violent foe.
