21Then ElijahH452H413 approachedH5066 allH3605 the peopleH5971 and saidH559, “How longH5704H4970 will youH859 waverH6452 betweenH5921 twoH8147 opinionsH5587? IfH518 the LORDH3068 is GodH430, followH1980 HimH310. But ifH518 BaalH1168 is God, followH1980 himH310.”

But the peopleH5971 did notH3808 answerH6030 a wordH1697.

22Then ElijahH452 saidH559 toH413 the peopleH5971, “IH589 am the onlyH905 remainingH3498 prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068, but BaalH1168 has fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 prophetsH5030H376. 23GetH5414 twoH8147 bullsH6499 for us. Let the prophets of Baal chooseH977 oneH259 bullH6499 for themselves, cut it into piecesH5408, and placeH7760 it onH5921 the woodH6086 but notH3808 lightH7760 the fireH784. And IH589 will prepareH6213 the otherH259 bullH6499 and placeH5414 it onH5921 the woodH6086 but notH3808 lightH7760 the fireH784.
