Exegesis
The construct phrases miphi {מִפִּי | mi-pî} ‘from the mouth’ and umikarnei {וּמִקַּרְנֵי | û-mi-qar-nê} ‘and from the horns’ connect the imagery of aryeh {אֲרִיֵּה | ʾa-rî-yēh} ‘lion’ and remim {רְמִים | rə-mîm} ‘wild oxen’ as threats.
In context — Psalm 22:21
Rescue me from the mouth of the lion and from the horns of wild oxen; You have answered me.
