1 Kings 18:36-46

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! 40And ElijahH452 saidH559 to them, SeizeH8610 the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168; let not oneH376 of them escapeH4422! And they seizedH8610 them; and ElijahH452 broughtH3381 them downH3381 to the torrent of KishonH7028, and slaughteredH7819 them there. 41And ElijahH452 saidH559 to AhabH256, GoH5927 up, eatH398 and drinkH8354; for there is a soundH6963 of abundanceH1995 of rainH1653. 42And AhabH256 wentH5927 up to eatH398 and to drinkH8354. And ElijahH452 wentH5927 up to the topH7218 of CarmelH3760; and he bowed down on the earthH776, and putH7760 his faceH6440 between his knees. 43And he saidH559 to his servantH5288, GoH5927 up now, lookH5027 toward the seaH3220. And he wentH5927 up and lookedH5027, and saidH559, [There is] nothingH369. And he saidH559, GoH5927 again sevenH7651 timesH6471. 44And it came to pass at the seventhH7637 time that he saidH559, Behold there is a cloudH5645, smallH6996 as a man's handH3709, arising out of the seaH3220. And he saidH559, GoH5927 up, sayH559 to AhabH256, HarnessH631 and goH5927 down, that the pour of rainH1653 stop thee not. 45And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heavensH8064 becameH1961 black [with] cloudsH5645 and windH7307, and there wasH1961 a greatH1419 pour of rainH1653. And AhabH256 got on the chariot, and went to Jizreel. 46And the handH3027 of Jehovah wasH1961 upon ElijahH452; and he girded up his loinsH4975, and ranH7323 before AhabH256 to the entrance of Jizreel.
