But thou exaltest my horn like the unicorn’s; I am anointed with fresh oil; And mine eye shall see my desire on mine enemies, And mine ear shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

They shall still bring forth in old age, They shall be full of sap and flourishing, To show that Jehovah is just, He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.—Ps. xcii.

The old men retired soon after the morning-sacrifices leaving him to his own reflections, and rejoicing that one was found among the youth of Israel, so full of enthusiasm for the service of Jehovah.
