Brian; yes the bible does mention unicorns. Didnt you see my list of verses?

What it means is that there was some sort of animal that the translators of the Hebrew in the time of King James used the word Unicorn to represent it in English.
Numbers 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn (rēm).
Zodiahtes Word Study
rēm - A masculine noun indicating a wild ox. It refers to a large animal with horns that are powerful offensive as well as defensive weapons (Num_23:22; Num_24:8; Psa_22:21 [22]). God is its creator and provider (Job_39:9-10). It is used figuratively of Joseph's strength and fecundity (Deu_33:17); and of the strength God gives His people, their exalted horn indicating their success (Psa_92:10 [11]). It stands for powerful persons, influential people (Isa_34:7).
Stongs - From H7213; a wild bull (from its conspicuousness): - unicorn.

THE KJV used unicorns, but if you go back to the Hebrew bible it was translated from it used re’em (which didnt really have a translation);However, research studies have found that the associated texts show that this animal was called "rimu" Newer translations also describe it as a "wild ox" and others think it describes a rino.
Same old attack, still no proof to disprove God....
God Bless

If you read all these verses you will se that every single one of these are metaphors or similes describing something. It never states once that unicorns actually exist, it just uses them as a device to get a message across.

Unicorns are only mentioned in faulty translations of the Bible.

The word "Unicorn" is Latin and means single horned. The question is are there single horned creatures on planet earth? The Indian rhinoceros is the most likely candidate. Its scientific name 'Rhinoceros unicornis'

No.
The Bible is a group of stories used to teach people how to live. The big mistake is thinking that, word for word, every little bit is exactly how it happened.
Not so.
