From The Sixth Day
On the sixth day, God made me.
Adam then was ordered to name me.
Then after quite some time, a very strong man
With God's help, tore me apart with his own hands.
Then a most unfortunate young man of the dead king
Was put in a hole filled with some brothers and me.
However, an angel of God came down into the hole,
And then our mouths were shut, and we couldn't eat the poor soul.
My next big moment was beside God's throne,
Where I stand guard with six wings of my own.
You'll most often see me in zoos and parks.
Be careful though, 'cause I could tear you apart.
What am I?

Answer
A lion.According to the Bible, God made the beasts of the earth on the sixth day, and after which, Adam named them.
Samson met a lion in the wild, and when the lion attacked, the spirit of God came into Samson, and Samson tore the lion apart.
Daniel interpreted the writing on the wall for Belshazzar, the dead king of the time. He was placed in a den of lion's because he continued to worship God, which was against the rule of the new king. Then, an angel came in and shut the lions' mouths.
In Revelation, a lion stands beside God's throne and the lion has six wings.
The last stanza is self-explanatory.
