Unclear, but works...

SELECT DISTINCT stb.specimen_id FROM specimen_test_bits stb WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1), (2), (3) , 
(4)) AS foo(id)                    WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 
stb1.test_bit_id FROM specimen_test_bits stb1                                       WHERE foo.id = 
stb1.test_bit_id                                         AND 
stb.specimen_id = stb1.specimen_id));
