19And nowH6258 sendH7971, gatherH6908 to me all IsraelH3478 to mount CarmelH3760, and the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168 fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, and the prophetsH5030 of the AsherahH842 fourH702 hundredH3967, who eatH398 at Jezebel's tableH7979.

20So AhabH256 sentH7971 to all the children of IsraelH3478, and gatheredH6908 the prophetsH5030 togetherH6908 unto mount CarmelH3760.

21Then ElijahH452 drewH5066 near to all the peopleH5971, and saidH559, How long do ye halt between twoH8147 opinions? if Jehovah be 1GodH430, follow him; and if BaalH1168, follow him. And the peopleH5971 answered him not a wordH1697.

22And ElijahH452 saidH559 to the peopleH5971, I, onlyH905 I, remainH3498 a prophetH5030 of Jehovah; and Baal's prophetsH5030 are fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376.

23Let them therefore giveH5414 us twoH8147 bullocks: and let them chooseH977 oneH259 bullock for themselves, and cutH5408 it in pieces, and putH5414 it on the woodH6086, and putH5414 no fireH784; and I will sacrifice the other bullock, and putH5414 it on the woodH6086, and putH5414 no fireH784.

24And callH7121 ye on the nameH8034 of your 2godsH430, and I will callH7121 on the nameH8034 of Jehovah; and the 3godH430 that answers by fireH784, let him beH1961 4GodH430. And all the peopleH5971 answered and saidH559, The wordH1697 is goodH2896.
