1 Kings 18:26-29

26And they tookH3947 the bullock which was givenH5414 them, and they dressed it, and calledH7121 on the nameH8034 of BaalH1168 from morningH1242 even until noonH6672, sayingH559, O BaalH1168, hear us. But there was no voiceH6963, nor any that answered. And they leaped about the altarH4196 which was madeH6213. 27And it came to pass at noonH6672, that ElijahH452 mocked them, and saidH559, Cry aloud; for he is a godH430: either he is musing, or he is gone aside, or he is on a journeyH1870, or peradventure he sleepeth and must beH1961 awaked. 28And they cried aloud, and cutH1413 themselves after their manner with knives and lances, till the bloodH1818 gushed out upon them. 29And it was so, when midday was past, that they prophesiedH5012 until the time of the offeringH4503 of the evening oblation; but there was neither voiceH6963, nor any to answerH6030, nor any that regarded.
