1 Kings 18:36-46
36And it came to pass at [the time of] the offering up of the oblation, that Elijah the prophet drew near, and said, Jehovah, 1God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known this day that thou art 2God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things by thy word. 37Answer me, Jehovah, answer me, that this people may know that thou Jehovah art 3God, and [that] thou hast turned their heart back again. 38And the fire of Jehovah fell, and consumed the burnt-offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 39And all the people saw [it], and they fell on their faces and said, Jehovah, he is 4God! Jehovah, he is 5God! 40And Elijah said to them, Seize the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape! And they seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the torrent of Kishon, and slaughtered them there. 41And Elijah said to Ahab, Go up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain. 42And Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed down on the earth, and put his face between his knees. 43And he said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up and looked, and said, [There is] nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. 44And it came to pass at the seventh time that he said, Behold there is a cloud, small as a man's hand, arising out of the sea. And he said, Go up, say to Ahab, Harness and go down, that the pour of rain stop thee not. 45And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heavens became black [with] clouds and wind, and there was a great pour of rain. And Ahab got on the chariot, and went to Jizreel. 46And the hand of Jehovah was upon Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jizreel.
