1 Kings 18:30-39
30Then ElijahH452 saidH559 to all the peopleH5971, DrawH5066 near to me. And all the peopleH5971 drewH5066 near to him. And he repairedH7495 the altarH4196 of Jehovah which was brokenH2040 downH2040.
31And ElijahH452 tookH3947 twelve stonesH68, according to the numberH4557 of the tribesH7626 of the sonsH1121 of JacobH3290, to whom the wordH1697 of Jehovah came sayingH559, IsraelH3478 shall beH1961 thy nameH8034;
32and with the stonesH68 he builtH1129 an altarH4196 in the nameH8034 of Jehovah, and madeH6213 a trench roundH5439 about the altarH4196, of the capacity of two measures of seedH2233;
33and he putH7760 the woodH6086 in order, and cutH5408 the bullock in pieces, and laid it on the woodH6086. And he said, Fill four pitchers with water, and pour it on the burnt-offering, and on the woodH6086.
34And he saidH559, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he saidH559, Do it the thirdH8027 time. And they did it the thirdH8027 time.
35And the waterH4325 ran roundH5439 about the altarH4196; and he filledH4390 the trench alsoH1571 with waterH4325.
36And it came to pass at [the time of] the offeringH4503 up of the oblation, that ElijahH452 the prophetH5030 drewH5066 near, and saidH559, Jehovah, 1GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327 and IsraelH3478, let it beH1961 knownH3045 this dayH3117 that thou art 2GodH430 in IsraelH3478, and that I am thy servantH5650, and that I have done all these thingsH1697 by thy wordH1697.
37AnswerH6030 me, Jehovah, answerH6030 me, that this peopleH5971 may knowH3045 that thou Jehovah art 3GodH430, and [that] thou hast turnedH5437 their heartH3820 back again.
38And the fireH784 of Jehovah fellH5307, and consumedH398 the burnt-offering, and the woodH6086, and the stonesH68, and the dustH6083, and lickedH3897 up the waterH4325 that was in the trench.
39And all the peopleH5971 sawH7200 [it], and they fellH5307 on their facesH6440 and saidH559, Jehovah, he is 4GodH430! Jehovah, he is 5GodH430!
