JOB, Chap. 39. Vers. 9, 10, 11, 12. 9. Will the Unicorn be willing to serve thee? or abide by thy crib? 10. Canst thou bind the Unicorn with his hands in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee? 11. Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour with him? 12. Wilt thou believe him that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?

The Lord still enquires after Jobs skill and knowledge in the book of the creatures. In the former context, Job was interrogated about the wild Ass, whose freedom was there set out, in opposition to the servitude of the home-bred, or tame Ass. Here the Lord puts the question about the Unicorn, and sets forth his liberty, in opposition to the servile labour of the Ox.
