Isaiah 11:6: "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."
Isaiah 65:25: "The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD."
The Scriptures are clear, identifying the wolf with the lamb, & not a lion & a lamb (though the probability of this too actually happening is very high). I realize that it has been popular for some time to quote it as "the lion & the lamb", & that maybe because it's easier to memorize, or oft quoted by preachers, or to depict a really ferocious beast with a docile one, or even from the Elvis song, "Peace in the Valley", one verse being,
"Well the bear will be gentle
And the wolves will be tame
And the lion shall lay down
By the lamb, oh yes"
You may care to check out other Bible translations, & you won't find 'the lion & the lamb'.
