Sheep In Wolf's Clothing

Someone who can appear or disguise themselves as a worldly member of society, but is in fact a strong, humble, righteous, God loving and cunning person.
"Did you see the looks on their faces when Johnathan just walked in there like he was apart of them, and then totally humbled them!? He's a total sheep in wolf's clothing!"

1 Samuel 27:5-12
5) Now David said to Achish, “If I have found favor with you, let me be given a place in one of the outlying towns, so I can live there. Why should your servant live in the royal city with you?” 6) That day Achish gave Ziklag to him, and it still belongs to the kings of Judah today. 7) The length of time that David stayed in Philistine territory amounted to a year and four months.

8) David and his men went up and raided the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites. From ancient times they had been the inhabitants of the region through Shur as far as the land of Egypt. 9) Whenever David attacked the land, he did not leave a single person alive, either man or woman, but he took flocks, herds, donkeys, camels, and clothing. Then he came back to Achish, 10) who inquired, “Where did you raid today?”

David replied, “The south country of Judah,” “The south country of the Jerahmeelites,” or “The south country of the Kenites.”

11) David did not let a man or woman live to be brought to Gath, for he said, “Or they will inform on us and say, ‘This is what David did.’” This was David’s custom during the whole time he stayed in the Philistine territory. 12) So Achish trusted David, thinking, “Since he has made himself repulsive to his people Israel, he will be my servant forever.”

Milf in sheep's clothing

New version of the old saying "Mutton dressed as lamb", and is a play on the old saying "Wolf in sheep's clothing."

Gives reference to the woman being a cougar while dressing as a skanky teenager to appear less predatorial and more attractive to her unsuspecting prey; hot young males.

This disguise can sometimes be successful at getting them closer to their game, or they can just look terribly tragic.

sheep

Usually regarded as an animal, however, experts say it definitely is. The sheep is clad with an early form of wool sweater, also known as wool.
The guttural sound mimics that of a cow with a vocoder, further proving the theory of evolution.

The word sheep can also refer to a person with poor sense of individuality, originating from experiments done with sheep groups. They have shown that the pack will allways mimic the black sheep in the crowd. Caps, "bling"-classified apparel, baggy jeans and the phrase "bust a cap in yo'ass" will appeal to the average sheep, if worn and used by the brother sheep.
Sheep is the only creature that displays such behavior, therefore the term.
-Assistant, would you pass me forensic fabric sample A38?
-Yes Dr. (A bit of tension in the room)
-Assistant, focus! You seem quite absent.
In an act of desperation to easen the tension, Assistant acts upon a phrase he picked up earlier the same day, when passing by a barber shop, thus, acting a sheep;
-I'ma bust a cap in yo'ass cracka!
(pause)...
-Remove thyself from the laboratory, Assistant.
-Yes Dr.
