Unicorn (Wild Ox, R. V.)

“Will the wild ox consent to serve you? Will he stay by your manger at night?”

“His majesty is like a firstborn bull, and his horns are like those of a wild ox. With them he will gore the nations, even to the ends of the earth. Such are the myriads of Ephraim, and such are the thousands of Manasseh.””

“Save me from the mouth of the lion; at the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me!”

“But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.”

“God brought him out of Egypt with strength like a wild ox, to devour hostile nations and crush their bones, to pierce them with arrows.”

“Can you hold him to the furrow with a harness? Will he plow the valleys behind you?”

“Can you rely on his great strength? Will you leave your hard work to him?”

“And the wild oxen will fall with them, the young bulls with the strong ones. Their land will be drenched with blood, and their soil will be soaked with fat.”
